Superchips are Ok.
As are most chip tuning companies. Everyone pretty much uses the same files downloaded onto your ECU. Where you REALLY want to spend your money is with a company that will custom tune your ECU specifically for your car on a rolling road.
For the same amount of money you can get good gains, most likely more because the tune is for your car not for the masses.
Just my two cents! Good luck and post your results.

Can you tell me which companies will tune the car that it will give more hp than the ecu update...if they will then I might as well pay for a tune than a ecu chip upgrade...

I had a quick look at your profile, it doesn't say which area you're from. I can only give you companies based in England because that's where I'm from.
Here's a couple you could try:
Pendle performance, Red dot racing, Chipped Uk and Paramount.
All are on the net for contact info.
Good luck!

Superchips have been around a long time. They tend to be conservative, but their work is generally good.

I'm in SoCal(LA), the reason I'm asking is every company says their the best and their this and that but which one is really better from all of them...I want the most power I can get from a chip...
