Ok then....

Tes....  my CQ is chipped via TAP.   What does it do?  Well, it bumps
the powerband down by about a grand to ~3k rather than 4k rpm.   It does

pull a tad bit harder to the redline versus stock, and some will say
your mileage will fall but mine has remained the same as far as I can
tell.    Don't expect a HUGE gain in power...  you'll only get that with
a turbo car.  ;-)
I've also got a K&N cone on the car now, but didn't have it
when I first got the chip...   cone does nothing other than give a NICE
tone and make it easier to get at.  ;-)
