Default Will It Work??

Ok quick question... Will a GIAC chip work on a Auto tranny if the chip is for a 5spd?... Somebody is selling a chip for a good price but they have a 5spd and I have the TIP tranny?

i think you need to contact giac and have then reflash the chip for a tip, i dont think it costs too much to do that

The TIP in 2001 was a 5-speed. Was this changed in 2002?
Do you have a CVT?
