what do you think?

im afraid to get the flip chip... i think i would like it too much .. i want my truck to last 300,000. i dont think it will because i will like the high horse power settings to much.

i say get it. whats the chances of your truck not lasting that long. if you take care of it im sure it will be fine. you just might have to teach yourself a little bit of self control!!!!!!

Research the chip and get exactly what you want the first time.

only issue with running achip - you'll burn the tranny or clutch up, not the motor.

CHIP IT! Watch the gauges and have fun. Don't worry about the engine as much as the wasted fuel you will see going out the tail pipe
