Default Super chip ???

I have a 1995 Saturn sc-1 sohc 5spd that runs real good but it was missing
horsepower!!!I got my hands on a (Mod chip) it connects to the IAT sensor
plug and gives about 30 more horsepower!!!A buddy of mine has a 1995 sc-2
dohc 5spd and well I had him by at least 3 cars at the end of an 1/8 mile
I have heard so much about sohc Saturns (buy you a real motor)Ha Ha My
buddy and I raced 5 times and I won all 5 so all you guys and girls with
the 1.9 sohc Give it hell

My guess is your "buddy" is using 87 octane fuel and in need of a tune
up (plugs and wires) because chip or not the SOHC engine is no match
for the DOHC engine when it is it good running order and properly
feed. I recently got my daughter a clean used 97 SC2 with the DOHC
engine and I must say that I am very inpressed with how zippy it is as
it feels a lot stronger than its rating and a lot strong than SOHC
units I have driven.(it pulls strongly and without hesitation to its
6500 RPM redline and it is just getting warmed up at 4000 RPM) A SOHC
2 valve engine simply cannot match the breathing and HP producing
abilty above 4000 rpm of a DOHC 4 valve engine.

> and gives about 30 more horsepower...

Unless you put the car on a dyno to prove this, I would contend that it
absolutely does not.

But if you believe that your car is faster, then you got your money's worth.
