To expect a 'chip'/box to give you a 35-38bhp increase on a naturally aspirated car is somewhat pie in the sky.

Expect your car to run lean and issues like bore wash down the line. Not good.

As Mike said, buy from reputable known traders.

i have bravo hgt with this chip fitted. its really easy to fit. gains are noticable especially between 2500-4000 revs.
 
dont bother get a live remap none of this plug and play rubbish
 
Ultimately a live map is best but my understanding is that the 147 engine ecu can't do it (155 can).

Well it arrived this morning in the post and got it in within about 15 mins. Only done 15 miles so far but seems to have a bit more oompf and is very smooth right through the rev band. So far i'm impressed, but i will do some more miles with it and post up my exact thoughts then. :)
