Please see the Japanese magazine articles featuring DPS for 3rd party dyno information.

I am extremely skeptical of this product. It seems to me to be one of those wonder product cure alls about like the late night Paid Program car polish that makes huge key marks in a car hood disapear before your eyes. The magazine articles aren't very much help in making it seem more believable to me either... all I saw was a small section of symbols circled and translated into some HP figures. Also, the money back thing is a little questionable to me as well. You only have 7 days from time of purchase to decide if you are going to send it back. How long does it take for the product to get to you? Then how long would it take for you to get it back to them? There goes your 7 days... I have a feeling I might get in trouble for posting this but the question was asked and these are my thoughts.

Re: whats everyones thoughts on that DPS system?

Thanks for your honest opinion.

Let me address your points:
1. The magazine reviews will be translated in English, not to mention there will be magazine reviews of the DPS in the United States relatively soon.
2. The money back guarantee's 7 day term starts from when you receive the product and ends 7 days after you possess it; basically, the shipping times are not included.

I see... I will be interested to see the translations as I am sure others will be as well. And also, you may want to address that clarification of the money back policy a little bit. I kind of doubt I am the only one who thought what I previously posted was the case. That might help a little bit to know what you just said.

Igor, I am going to be honest with my thoughts. Yes it seems interging, but I am also a bit skeptical. I am not saying I don't beleive the product works, and I am not saying I beleive it does. I am saying I am skeptical about the whole thing truthfully due to lack of knowledge about the whole thing. As a result, I feel I should reserve judgement until I find out further infromation. I am very interested in seeing the US magazine articles and reviews about this product. I am sure that once they are out there, the reviews will answer my, and others questions. Please keep us posted on when it makes it into a magazine review, as I am intersted in seeing how it performs for them. I hope my thoughts on this didn't upset you. If they did I am sorry.

Re: whats everyones thoughts on that DPS system?

If it seems intriguing, then you have nothing to lose by trying it out; remember, there is a 100% money back guarantee, including shipping both ways. By buying the DPS, you can only gain by knowing what it feels like and how it performs on your car. Don't like it? Ship it back!

Just throwing this out there but would the DPS be willing to extend the money back guarantee time period. I mean I share the same skepticism as the others who have posted- and if I do decide to buy it I know that I will not have the time to install it the same day I get it- trully test drive it or maybe dyno it, but probably not- take it off if I don't like it- then send it back. I am busy now and it will only get worse when I start school again and as business picks up at my new job. I just want the time to actually properly test it you know. I don't know if what I suggested is possible though.

I am interested though... so thats a start...

Re: whats everyones thoughts on that DPS system?

What period of test time would you consider as reasonable?
2 weeks? 3?
