It's not all about peak HP gain. It eliminates a dead spot around 3000-3500rpms, sharpens throttle response a lot, gives 10lbft of torque across the rev range, and can put you in the low 15s.

The chip along with exhaust and maybe an elec. fan would release a few more ponies. You're not really going to "gain" any horse from exhaust or a elec. fan but you're "releasing" horsepower, if that means anything. So between the chip and those other 2, you could get at least 25-30 hp probably.

You would definitely tell the difference, let's put it that way.

From what i've seen on the forums, most people say it's a waste of money. For the price it's hardly noticeable.
