Yes & No.

A "chip" is just a computer chip that controls all the of the functions of the engine. Most chips do minor tweaking to the timings, fuel mixtures, etc to get the most out of the engine. That, in itself, does not hurt the engine.

Some chips though, remove the redline limit, meaning you can now rev your TT over 7,000 RPM. This could hurt your engine in the long term.
