tricks the ecu into thinking the temp of the air coming into the intake is colder than it is and injects more fuel. eventually the ecu relearns back to it's stock map.

go ahead and buy it... i mean it's only 99 cents right? and then when something bad happens to your car, and you cant get the dealer to warranty it, come back on here and make another post about your car getting messed up off of something you bought off ebay...

Nowhere in the ad does it guarantee 3/10th of a second in the 1/4 mile...it reads, "BY USING THIS MODIFICATION IT WILL INCREASE YOUR ACCELERATION AND 1/4th MILE TIME BY up to 3/10ths of a second."

The only guarantee is that the resistor, which probably costs anywhere from $.01-.03 in bulk, won't burn out.

I do echo the sentiment that the net effect of this sweet $.99 mod is going to be a big, fat ZERO.
