My old ATX could hit an indicated 210 KMH (about 120 MPH) at ~7000 rpm in 3rd gear - chipped of course.

One time I looked down and was accidentally going about that fast. I thought I was going like 80-90. This was not too long after I upgraded from a 1992 Saturn.

He could also pull the chip out & run on regular all day long. When a race weekend comes along, chip it & fill up with high octane. Superchips makes it EASY.
Dude, SVTs are supposed to run on premium,,, run it without and you get less performance and possibly can ruin the engine if the knock sensor isn't working great.

Total B.S. for an off the shelf chip. Dyno tuning a chip for your particular mods you might get something close to that, but not likely. I have yet to see any real proof of any gains from an off the shelf chip for the Contour, let alone those size of gains.
