do not buy that... thing. You're 16 without a job, BUT have a bmw. Which means parents are paying of it, which is totally fine, live it up, anyone hating on that is jealous. BUT, point is, if the parents are funding a 325i for you i don't think it'd be too hard to get the cash from them for a true tune. Be smart don't buy that thingamajig

Glad to see this is the youth of tomorrow, Lets look at what you said,

"I'm only 16 with out a job...i dnt want to spend that much on a chip....jst going to try this out... test in on a dyno... once i get it",

so you can afford to put your car on a dyno but are to cheap to penny up for a legitimate tune that are known to show gains. No one really cares how you got the car, parents, grandparents, u saving money, obama sent you a check, if you really think a 20$ chip from ebay is something you want to stick in a BMW then obviously this is not the car for you. My suggestion is you sell this poor car ASAP and then join this forum instead because at this rate its only a time before you ask if dragon flame decals are ok to put on. http://www.hondacivicforum.com/forum/
