Yes, Mod chips can help. But read the instructions carefully and do exactly as they tell you to. Also consider that if your car is under warranty, using Mod chips normally void the warranty.

If by this you mean engine performance chips, then heck no, it will probably break something, if you manage to figure out how to do it, as there is only one port. You can, however, switch, but on a gas car you might need an engine rebuild - diesels are generally exempt from needing modifications.
