330itis 15 Report post Posted January 15, 2006 If you find a chip for the 318 let me know coz I havent found one yet. but as far as I know the chips dont do jack, They are only a minimal power increase and it just lets your engine rev out further Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps turboing it would get it into the 15s - think of the money spent to get it another 2 seconds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
