Re: Is this a crock or what??
a crock mate stay away
a real perfomance chip will bet 5X more expensive and you wouldnt see anything more than about 10hp from 1 (unless its a turbocharged engine)
that what you get off ebay is basily a resistor you add to your MAF sensor which fools the ECU in to thinking there is more air comming in thus injecting more fuel in to the cylnders, but since there isnt more air comming in it basily just wastes fuel as its not a optimum fuel/air mix and just wastes the xtra fuel
