I would not beleave that kind of claim. You can not garantee a power gain by adding something unless we are talking nitrous oxide or something. I would not buy it. But if you do decide to buy it let us know how it works.

do not buy that, its a simple resistor that you can buy at radio shack for less then a quarter. and it wont do anything. It supposed to trick the intake temp sensor to think colder air is coming in and it will more than likely make your CEL come on......not a wise investment IMO

The cyclone system or whatever the shit it's called is indeed just that. Shit. Its a poorly implemented idea.

hey this actually worked. but my engine light kept coming on. the car feels like if it is bringing in cold air and takes off quicker. i took it off though because i was scared of that light.

honestly, what possess people to pay 5 bucks for something they could go buy for a dime? yeah, ive seen the leaf blowers....er i mean superchargers. The whole resistor thing is stupid, but i would like to know who came up with the idea to throw it on their car.
Maybe i should get like 50 of those resistors and link them all together, then buy an electric supercharger and a fake bov....ill be running 10's atleast....think of ALL the HP i would get....pift
sometimes i wonder about people....crazy
