Default Just the beginning...

I've had my S4 for about 2 months, and I find myself wanting more power. Does anyone have any suggestions for a chip that meets these speciications:
-Undetectable to diagnostics
-Maintains engine reliability
-Doesn't set off engine lights
-Increase of ~50 HP
-Doesn't require hard to find octane levels

MTM and ABT chips seem to be the most reliable.

Default Agree ,, got them both for while and I think they are very good..

MTM a little less, but it also the lowest boost chip out there

Except for that engine reliability thing, any of the good chips APR, Abt, GIAC or MTM.
