well atleast something stopped you from installing it. could it have been fate? just leave it off the car, and sell it on ebay. it will do nothing for your car.

just look at the description...

All you have to do is find your car's IAT Sensor. With the resistor plugged into it, your car will think that the air coming in through the intake is cold. To compensate for this, the car will add more air, and to balance that action it will add more fuel. Doing so will produce 5-20 more HP. You'll be faster off the line and faster through your shifting.
can someone please tell me how the car(without driver intervention) can add more AIR?

Re: Speed chip
Ok. no no no no no.

Rule #1. If a chip costs a buck and some change, DONT BUY IT. Real chips that are soldered into existing ECU packets cost a couple of hundred dollars at least. Some help with more efficient valve functioning over high RPM ranges. Others control other aspects of engine management and airflow. They actually add considerable hp (a chip for the new Saabs increases hp by 75!)

Rule #2. 99% of these bullshit chips will only raise your idle RPM to about 1000 and nothing more. I say this from experience, because a lot my friends own civics who have done this crap.

Stay AWAY from these chips. Complete waste of a dollar. And some change.
