Hyundai Performance Chip
I could tell the acceleration difference
within the first 10 miles on my 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Blue Line, and my gas mileage also increased about 3 miles per gallon. I had a stage 3 on my 2014 Lincoln MKZ and it was great also. I highly recommend the stage 3 chip it has been great on 2 cars now for me.
Installation was plug-and-play. My daily commute feels more fun now. Totally worth it.
I bought a stage 3 for my 2003 Hyundai Accent. The hardest thing about installation was not wanting to screw it up or damage the unit and seeing the light on it. That is not Thorton’s fault. The OBD2 port was in a poor location. I left the key on for about a minute to insure that there was computer communication. There was an immediate increase in throttle response. It revved higher, quicker and moved like a scalding cat. In town traffic didn’t have a chance. Going on a road trip to see what kind of mileage it gets but I am totally satisfied with it. I recommend it only to people who like to drive. I love the difference. Thanks so much.
I am 100% not affiliated with Thorton Chip Tuning in anyway! I am very satisfied and loyal customer! I am here to admit I was very skeptical at first, after reading the negative reviews! But, I believe sometimes you just got to ignore the negative and try it out yourself! I am so glad I purchased the stage 3 chip from Thorton Chip Tuning for my 2013 Hyundai Sonata Limited with a 2.4L engine. Before the stage 3 chip installed, I could get about 343 miles to a tank of gas! My wife and I. both very skeptical purchased the stage 3 and after driving around 133 miles. We decided to test and compare the Stage 3 Chip for ourselves. The gas mileage doesn’t lie!!! Before the stage 3 Chip, we would fill up in Fontana, CA, and drive to Las Vegas, NY, for the weekend. And fill up again to drive back to Fontana, CA. After the install of the Stage 3 Chip, we filled up in Fontana, CA, like we did previously. However, this time on the same original tank of gas. We drove back to Fontana, CA. and we still had 1/8th of gas left! One tank of gas roundtrip! And we checked our mileage 469 miles, ot 343!!! So for all of the negative reviews, I say I am personally 100% convinced that these Thorton Chips do everything they are supposed to do and more!!! Thanks again Thorton Chip Tuning! We now have the Stage 3 Chip in all of our vehicles!!! By the way, did I mention the increased throttle response and torque increase! All I can say is WOW!!! I strongly recommend these chips!!! Well worth the purchase!!! Thanks again to Cedric also for helping me out!

I can attest to Richard Bay’s assessment of the Thornton chip. I installed a stage 2 onto my 2019 Lincoln MKC 2.0T. As far as performance in HP, Torque, and MPG ; all have improved the vehicle’s overall performance. I can’t recall the exact milage that I feel the chip had maxed out it’s capability but it was around 80-100 miles. I followed the advise of an engineer friend of mine when he said drive it aggressively during the time it will take for the chip to fully integrate with the system. This product reveals the true capabilities your vehicle has. Listen it’s a $ 59.99 part; if you really want to see what your vehicle can really do go for it!
