There is no way you'll get 20hp from a na 4cycl motor from just a chip. Don't beleive the hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elwood91 Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 Even if you are talking about the N/A 2.5 gt 97-04 into a 2.2 L you won't get much difference. Could be worse due to the 97-99 are dohc not sohc. If you meant the 05 GT chip that's a bad idea. What year/engine Legacy L ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 Chips cannot produce that kind of power hike on a NA engine. Period. Even a turbo motor would not do well with only the chip. Reason is simple: The chip cannot change the most important aspect, namely valve timing. Also, the injectors are unlikely to flow accurately if you demand them to flow more fuel. A NA chip tuning will involve the chip, new injectors, and ideally new camshafts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
