There are no performance chips available yet - at least not that I know of - but if you want a more responsive Telluride, this will do the trick:

Pedal Commander Throttle Response Controller

Pedal Commander is not a generic one-size-fits-all device. Each unit is individually programmed according to the make, model, engine specs and transmission of your car. User-Friendly & Adjustable – it comes with 4 different modes: Eco, City, Sport and Sport+. Each mode has 8 adjustable settings.

My brother tunes everything and says without turbo or a supercharger you can't add alot of power.

Has anyone purchased this chip yet? I'm really curious if this works.

Bingo. Your wasting your money to get anything out of a normally aspirated engine with a chip. If you have a custom engine built and your trying to tailor the engine management system to wring out the power, ok. A flat stock engine, no so much. It's all about that boost.

I was thinking of eventually adding a cold air intake and a borla exhaust so I was curious if the tuning chip would help tune the ECU after they are installed.

You will be spending$1500 or more for what? 10-20 HP? Optimistically but I would only use before and after Dyno. Again spending more money

Agree with what’s been said, on a naturally aspirated engine you aren’t going to make much with bolt ons/chip unless you are willing to dig into the engine and mess with the compression, change out pistons/rods/cams etc. Then you’ll need a bigger throttle body, fuel pump, etc to feed it. Basically a new engine! And it will never end (in a fun way), you’ll always want to squeeze a bit more. It can be done and can be fun but you have to willing to literally pour money in because things will break as you test the limits. I built up a pretty rad NA Acura Integra back in the day but it took a crap ton to make it a couple seconds faster whereas others would throw on a turbo and get the same gain. Doh!

I have a turbocharged F150 and it’s sooo much easier…bigger turbos, bigger exhaust, tuner to up the boost and away you go with massive gains.

I wish I had the time and money to mod full time, it’s super interesting and is a great fun community.

Got it. So I should swap out the stock engine for a turbocharged one.

Or just add a turbo to the existing engine....
