in fairness to ebay chips i bought one for my iS from the states and what a difference it made to mine throughout the rev range..really doubt im getting the gains they claim but it made a noticable difference and im happy with that...only paid £30 for mine too..

I would suspect if it is a copy of a decent map, it'll be +10bhp. There is room for more power just by mapping these things. I'd be fitting it over a rolling road session to check increases and safety..
