    Anyone have and real life experience with performance chip like those from RocketChip, Thorton or Chip Your Car? Can a $150.00 plug in chip really ad 40+HP to a 4Runner? Maybe I'm a skeptic, but sounds too good to be true.
    Thanks.

    Oooh look, another mod.....
    If you think putting a performance chip in your 4Runner will give you more horsepower, then I have some ocean front property I'd like to sell you. It's in Arizona.
