Just got a email reply from them (customerservice@powerbyjet.com). The 6gen 2.3 vtec gains 11-13hp when the engine is not modified at all (or with a K&N drop filter). With AEM CAI + headers the gain is 18hp.

i remember aeon's ago, rshih from this forum had the jet chip...he promptly sold it since it made his car react weird...he talked to jet ppl and what they said was that the unit was running way too hot to be functionaling normally, thus causing engine to behave abnormally...
