Looking for opinions for EVO chips
In everyone's opinion, what chip is your favorite for an evo?

Evos don't use chips.

They are making somewhat fun of you, because Evo's don't use Chips. (Microschips) And the fact that you asked a question that nobody has ever even conceived makes it funny..

Chipping is not needed in Evo's because the ECU's are easily programmable with a free program called ECU Flash. All that's needed is the purchase of a Tactrix cable.

More curiously i'm wondering why you ask this question... You have a SRT4 I see. Are you simply trying to start a conversation..?

Evo > SRT4/VW/Audi/etc.

We don't use chips, we use free/cheap tuning/logging software and a $90 cable
