Sounds almost too good to be true...

Biggest swindle on eBay. This black box is nothing more than a 5¢ resistor you are supposed to plug onto your MAF sensor. This are supposed to trick the computer by making it thinking there's more airflow into the intake to make it increase the gaz admission level.

But this is NOT working at all. YES :

hasher22 · 08-23-2006, 06:22 AM

i believe it will give it more power.

Cuz reviews on ebay for the seller cannot be fake. I guess i have to buy it and see the difference. HA, maybe later.

If its bullshit then all the peeps who baught it will write a bad review for him this he will go out of business and prob get sued for fake advertising.

you dont actually notice a difference, all a mind thing... I tried just for the sake of trying on one of my other cars and it made NO diff. They are all just resistors, doesnt matter what kind of fancy box it comes in, you can buy resistors at Radio Shack for a buck, they charge 25... nuff said.

ChinoCharles · 08-23-2006, 02:51 PM

Life lesson kids.

If it seems too good to be true, it is.

Save your money.

And I'm sorry Violin, I should have given you more credit than to think you'd be interested in this garbage.

riceboy · 08-24-2006, 01:01 AM

maybe if I was

Katana · 08-24-2006, 04:54 AM

Come on, if it was true wouldn't Toyota use it???

dbaxter · 08-24-2006, 03:22 PM

All of the performance companies do this from time to time. Some trick the maf into thinking there is more airflow, some fool the iat sensor to thinking its colder then it is thus changing timing, usually for the worse and causing KR.

Will it work, SOTP gage, since you spent money EVERYONE feels a seat of the pants difference. Using diag software or a dyno is the only way to know for sure.

The ones that fool the IAT sensor actually do increase HP due to the afr and timing change, I had one for my SS and you could dial in different afr, and add/decrease timing which did increase up to 20rwhp. It cost more but in the end I went out and got the true tuning software and made all the needed changes the right way.

$25 bux = no way
$200-$300 most likely get some increase
$750-$5000 tuning software = absolutely you will get performance changes
