I just bought a Performance chip and it's still in the mail but I would like to know how to change the OEM chip to the new performance chip.

Im sorry but you just got ripped off, and I think it has to be soldered. waste of money

like the other guy said, waste of money. All these "chips" do are advance timing and add fuel. You can do the same thing by rotating your distributor and removing the vacuum line from your fuel pressure regulator. Also adding a chip requires you opening the ECU, soldering the chip in, and it will cause you to not be able to read trouble codes on the car with a OBD2 reader.
