raise in shift points - yeah
horsepower - have no idea, but I don't think so
around-town - I don't think so
full-throttle - yeah, kinda



raise in shift points - umm not really but then again I shift when I want it to shift
horsepower - butt dyno says there is more power
around-town - yeha I can accelerate better
full-throttle -why yes there is more power there too.


however my chip wasn't an off the shelf chip as in I didn't call superships or one of their dealers and said my code is xxyz and the shipped it out I had to get them data about the computer code from ford and then give them two dyno runs with an O2 wide band so they could make the chip for me... almost like a custom burn but not fully.
