Im going to assume your a 5th-7th gen monte. Chips are NOT for our cars. They could very likely fry your pcm.

I believe the chips just fool your pcm in to dumping more gas through, kind of like opening the choke a little bit, but I could be mistaken about the actuallity of that statement but you get the point. Your best bet is a pcm tune, I had mine done by Will at Overkill and am extremely happy with the results
