Does this chip look sketchy?

there are legitimate "generic" chips tuned by individuals, and then there are copies.
given there is zero branding, it's most likely a copy. -
I personally wouldn't buy a chip from eBay.

Oh- does it come with valve- spring- booster in a can???Furthermore the software safely raises the rev-limit,
If you have a wideband o2 sensor and a dynamic timing monitor, sure, why not?
Otherwise, why risk your engine on a $30 chip?
tnow, sometimes I just mess with people. It's more entertaining that way. george gravesComment

+1. My car came with an eBay chip. I later on swapped the whole DME for one with a stock chip. Car felt and drove a ton better.
Later on I added a Mark D chip and it felt even better than the stock chip and light years better than the eBay chip.
The eBay chips are a total gamble since you don't really know what you're getting. I'd keep it stock or save up for a proper chip where you'll know what you're getting.Comment

Spend the money and get a Mark D or TMS/conforti chip.
Its well worth the price tag.
