Thats not true. The old superchips and diablo sport chips that were in use by many people here were dyno proven to gain power on some cars. I say some cars because there were other cars that dyno'd a loss in power too.
It is hit or miss with a chip that isn't dyno tuned.

Performance Fords has a pretty good track record on Contours as well.

Street Flight is the ONLY "Experienced Aftermarket Tuner" of our platform worth a damn though.
Superchips sucks
Fordchips sucks
Diablo sucks
I don't include Venom because their module is 100% overpriced junk.
You get nothing but a sh~tty hack job at trying to tune our code. 
(I've seen code from all 3 and they are clueless about our platform! Most can't or don't change the majority of the needed parameters either  )
Generic chips are pretty worthless comparably.
Save your money for a "tuned" chip from someone that KNOWS how to tune our platform.

Tom your correct. Perhaps I should have said Street Flight has been shown to give hp/tq gains every time.

There is no substitute for hard work and applied intelligence. Keith at SF and now Chris that works for him do a great job. I just wanted to point out that there have been success stories with some of those chips though I agree with Greg wholeheartedly on this one!

From the superchips pics all over the website dont street
flight put in a superchip? Or is it more that they're
