i wouldnt waste your time on those

since he's not telling the buyer exactly what he's using to fool the ecm, it's either a pretty good idea that he doesn't want someone to steal, or it's rip off. like the old say if it sounds too good to be true then it probly is

For a few dollars, anyone wanna try it and write back???

[ridge_runner]

already have, but in a bronco, made it slower in the 1/4 mile, its just some diode that looks like it came from a computer

[ridge_runner]

ran a 16.4 and 16.6 a few times with it in, took it off and ran a 16.2

For that price, how can it do anything?

[4onFloor]

probly just just a resistor than that drops that value of the signal coming back from the mass airflow making the ecm think there's more airflow than there actually is, in turn advancing timing and changing the pulse width. i dont know just guessing. its probly $1.50 resistor from radio shack

[ridge_runner]

yea 4 thats exactly what it is, they play it off like it was made for your car when its not

SLP sells the same thing for $24.95, but it's from SLP and I trust them a little bit more than someone on eBay. They have them for both v6 and v8.

well i was close, istead of maf it's the IAT. except this one said 5-7hp gain possible. i'd say that guy on ebay is ripping people off. he's saying up to 20hp gain possible, key words being "up to". so if ya gain 1hp then technically it worked

[Deadcarny]

waste of money. I bouhgt one of the SLP ones for my 2000 Monte Carlo SS a few years ago and it was a waste.

[Chevyracincamaro]

is that one of those things thats like the venom chip? it just fools the comp of the throttle position. dont waste the money and get the same result by pressing down on the pedal further...
