Ebay purchase

well i was bored today. So i was searching around on ebay and i see a little resistor mod for my Intake. suppoesed to give me up to 20 hp ?. Well i bought it cause it was 6.00$ shipped. I figure if it doesnt work o well it was only 6 $ i just wont go Mc.D for the week. do you think it was a good purchase and do you think it will do anything?
I guess it is supposed to tell the ECU that the air temp is always 33 degrees there-for adding more fuel and more air.
I hope it works cause 20 hp for 6 dollars what a deal. Let me know what you think

Not worth it bud. Should have saved your $6. If it worked like advertised, everyone in this Org would have that mod.
