pretty sure it's a bunch of bs. if it was legit, more members on here would have it and there would be threads praising them.

i think it's just a resistor that would either do more damage than good, or do nothing at all.

it real bullshiit. Trust me i tried one of these just for the hell of it. It costed me $35. It's just a waste of money. The dyno plots that are posted are as fake as pam anderson's *****.

Quoted from the FAQ

What are all these 20+ HP chips I see on ebay?

They are timing advance resistors. Basically, it tells your ecu that your intake is recieving colder air.

Do they work?

NO. The ECU only uses the air temp sensor as a reference to ensure that all it's primary readings are within range. Changing this resistance will not get any HP gains.

Don't even bother with them.

I know a guy who has one. If I can find cheap dyno time, I'll throw it on just for a couple of runs.

1000 ohm 1/4 resistor 5% varience. The other trick is do the same to the water temp. Use both and you will do a nice lift off...
Until the computer compensates.
