Oh, no rechipping will net you lots..at the expense of dire fuel economy
usually.

Not on any decent car, it won't. Only those where there are identical
engines of differing power outputs where the power is set by the
electronics - and these are usually diesels.

Especially if there is a turbo you can screw the waste gate
down on

That's what I said above. Although you might well shorten the service life
of the engine.
