has anyone seen the resistors that are being sold on ebay?
Has anyone here tried the resistors to see if they work? and if so what type of resister is it? I see they have single resistors and there is also a variable set up as well.
If anyone has tryed this type of power boost....LET US ALL KNOW WHAT IT WAS LIKE OR IF IT IS WORTH IT???????????

if you want to ruin your engine go for it. its a scam and will result in your CEL (check engine light) to come on. what is does is trick your engine into thinking colder air is coming in.
if you want to waste your money on a .5 cent resistor go for it....and if you fall for it, you should sell your car and invest in a bike. cant screw that up to bad can ya

Then it will run like it's cold. Put a colder thermostat in too and you're set.
