Generally speaking most of them work by re-writing your ECM controls. They tell your Injector pump to supply more fuel and change the timing at which that fuel is delivered to the injectors. This is a very simplified explanation.
The biggest danger to using these chips is the Exhaust Temps. The water temp that is shown on your stock guages can read completely normal at the same time your melting your piston into molten metal. This is why it is imperative that you watch the Pyro guage close anytime you are using a chip. Anything that adds HP also adds addtional heat.
This additional heat is the reason for larger exhaust, bigger air intakes and larger turbo's along with some other items that help compenstae for that addional heat buildup. They help move the heat out quicker and keep fresh cooler air inside the engine.
Hope that helps to answer you questions.
