They highly recommend burning your own. However, I have emailed both of them companys, and asked the gains for my 93-s10 truck with 2.8l. The gains were within 2hp and about 5lbtq from eachother. I prevously got very bad customer service from jetchip on returning some wrong items that were shipped to me, and theirfor I will not buy from them again. Just my .02

Looking at your sig..
Have you done any ignition work to your ride?
You may be at limit for HP with your ride.
You have good parts choices.
I'd say you need better traction with new bushings or different tires to gain the final extra speed

If you have 110-120+ save a few more weeks and buy your own burner. get alot more power tuned to your engine.
I spent 94 or so on Ebay getting a EEPrommer 5 V3(a 120 burner)
email me and I can get you a decent burn/editing program
And if you sdo not have a Laptop, or something go to www.pricewatch.com and look at there Not New portion, and get a refurbished lap top for 50-70 bucks.

The quote I asked from them was not for the camaro, but for my show truck, it was in that range though. If you have time/patient I would really look into burning your own chip. Or if you do find a used one, go ahead and get it and read the chip, see what all they do.

If you choose HyperTech... I wish I'd gotten the street runner... The thermomaster requires the colder thermostat, and the chip keeps the cooling fan motor on all the time. IMO, the engine never really gets to proper operating temperature.
