Question Performance Chip Types!?! (2004 Accord V6 Coupe Automatic)

I have a 2004 Honda Accord EX-L V6 2-door/Coupe automatic. I want a performance chip for it. I am wondering what kind to get or both? I see online some look like a little computer chip and others are a unit with wires and I believe you hook it up to your fuel sensor wires where as the computer chip one I believe replaces an existing computer chip. I do not know and need help. Can you explain the two styles, pros & cons and if I can use both or only one and which type is best if only one can be used? I would appreciate any links and brands and reviews.

Thank you very much,

why do you want a chip? Do you have supporting mods to need a new tune?
Or do you think a chip will give you more power?...cus it won't

If you have 3 or more of thos then yes you would look to upgrade your ecu to a tunable one to get either a street tune or dyno tune.

FULL exhaust
CAI/SRI
Port and Polish
Bored tb and port matched
Cam shaft(s) and gears
Valve train...the list can go on

Do some research...you wil find
