Looked up on Ebay, there's quite a few for sale...But, do they really do anything at all? :eyebrow: Sciond 03-22-2005, 10:03 PM useless..there is no magic bullet 03-22-2005, 10:24 PM i have been wondering if they work also. jaymo 03-23-2005, 12:03 AM Well, they advertise it WILL give you a lot of goodies..HP, etc...Ebay should remove their A * * ! dgHotLava 03-23-2005, 12:10 AM if it worked don't you think that would be the first thing all of would have done???? its a scam...it gives you extra power for 10 mins until the ECU learns and corrects for it... they also sell spray to cure baldness, would you buy that?

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. :tap: SCI_TC_GUY 03-23-2005, 12:22 PM .....this has been explained a Bazillion times......... The chip fools the ECU into thinking the air coming into your engine is very cold(colder air is more oxygen dense)....since your ECU is reading a dense oxygen level, it dumps more fuel into your combustion chamber even though there really isn't any more oxygen in the air.....so what you end up with is a car that runs rich and eats gas...... jaymo 03-23-2005, 03:30 PM Got it! One less MOD I don't have to spend $$ , :doh: Thanks! dgHotLava 03-23-2005, 06:27 PM done and locked... |
