performance chips?
Does anyone have one of these on their v6?

If so, how much did it cost, what kind is it, and how much did it increase your mpg?

Are you talking about the cheap eBay chips? Because those are junk, if you want a good chip get the SCT Eliminator from American Muscle, free tunes for life from BAMA

Yes even a handheld tuner like the Predator will be money better spent.

"Chips" belong on the table, in a bag, or in a 70s hair show... Not in a Mustang.

Well I dont want to spend more than $150, so if there's not one that's worth it at that much then I wouldn't get one.

I'd say just hold off for now, til you can save up a little more. You get what you pay for...
