A: The DragonWorks Performance Chips Performance Chip is a plug and play device that is programmed to your vehicles specifications and provides improved performance and fuel economy while maintaining the full safety of your vehicles electrical and mechanical systems.
A: All our performance chips come set up as plug and play design needing no mechanics or tools to install. Simply plug it in following the provided pictorial instructions or following the video in our “How To” page and you are all done!
A: Yes, it is completely safe for your vehicle. All our chips run programs that stay within the safety zones of your vehicle so they will never harm your vehicle in any way.
A: Plug and Play means it comes preprogrammed and ready to install without the need of a mechanic or the need to modify your vehicle to use. It comes able to be used in stock vehicles as well as performance enhanced vehicles.
A: Our performance chip will begin working noticeably to the user from the moment plugged in and will continue to further improve the performance and fuel economy constantly while being used.
A: No, it will not void your vehicles warranty. We design our performance chips to leave no imprints on your vehicles ecu and to always retain its own information for continued use. This means that when you are taking your vehicle in for warranty work simply unplug the chip and your vehicle will return to its original settings before ever using the chip and then after you are done all you need to do is plug the chip back in following the sync procedure like you did during original install and it will resume right where it left off.
A: Yes, it will. Our performance chip runs a loop program that cycles system checks constantly just like how your vehicles ECU does so as you add a new performance part to the vehicle it will detect it in live-time, and it will adjust to provide even more performance from the new parts.
A: Yes, it will work perfectly. Our performance chips are designed to provide amazing performance gains and fuel savings from stock vehicles as well as modified vehicles. With our chip you are only limited to your imagination as far as you want to take it, if you use the chip in a stock vehicle you can gain (as example) say 38HP 41Ft. pounds of torque and an additional 3MPG but then you add a cold air intake, now it will push the gains higher to 47HP and 48Ft. pounds of torque with an additional 5MPG in fuel savings. But say instead you add a modified exhaust system and run a short ram intake, the performance gains from the intake will be a little less on the short ram intake but then add more due to the exhaust addition so you would see gains of 55HP and 59Ft. pounds of torque and an additional 6MPG in fuel savings.

A: Our Performance Chips work by sending a constant signal through your factory data port (OBD2 port) to your engine control module (ECM). This signal triggers the factory ECM to several areas of your vehicles programming including the fuel and air management as well as ignition curve and timing giving your vehicle a cleaner/stronger/and safer running motor. This piggy-back system is one of the safest and easiest performance enhancers available, leaving no trace of footprint behind. This means you will receive very noticeable gains in performance and fuel economy while maintaining your vehicles manufacturer warranty.
The performance chip is a dyno tuned fuel map tuned for your specific model vehicle changing air/fuel mixtures, timing, and spark. If the vehicle is turbo or supercharged, your performance chip will also increase boost pressure.
A: No, our chips are programmed based on your vehicle information provided. When ordering we ask the vehicles make, model, year, fuel type, and modifications done, and we input them into our program and flash it into the chip. We then test the performance chip to confirm the results and then ship it out to you.
A: Yes, all our performance chips come with easy-to-follow instructions and pictorials, and we also have a installation video in our “How To” page that will show the step by step installation and sync of a performance chip.
A: Performance results will vary based on your vehicle type and modifications done but most performance gains range in the 30%-45% range and also provide you with an average of 10%-20% more in fuel economy.
A: In terms of numbers our performance chip provides gains on average of 7mpg in fuel economy based on driving conditions and style.
A: Yes, they can, our performance chip is a piggy-back system that is simply an enhancer to what you are already running meaning that if you have a performance flashed ECU or a throttle controller installed (or other) it will work in conjunction with it to further enhance your performance.
A: Yes absolutely, our performance chips are fully compatible with both OEM as well as after-market installer superchargers and turbochargers.
A: Yes, it is. Our performance chips work with all drivetrains and even mode changing vehicles that switch between 2WD and 4WD/AWD
A: Yes, it is, we have tested and confirmed full compatibility with all transmission set ups from manual/stick shift to automatics and paddle shifters.
A: Yes, our performance chips are fully compatible with vehicles with mode shifting and will work in all modes. You can even change modes while driving with no issues and our performance chip will enhance each mode as you change between them.
