Don't get an off the shelf chip, email TI Performance in aussie about a J3 chip, tell them the mods you have and they will sort out a pre-programmed unit to get you started. Then If you buy the tuner package you get the logging software and tuner and can fine tune it yourself. 99% of the universal chips are rubbish, all they do is dump more fuel in which gives you a false feeling of improvement.

Actually a properly custom tuned chip will give you better fuel economy and better performance. They are not cheap however and cost about $900+ just for the chip, then dyno time over and above that so approx $1800 usually for a Falcon. We have always used Auckland Performance Tuning if you are still interested.
