I'm new to this forum. Just so you know.

Have any of you heard/used this before?

If not, I'm going to purchase it. Once I install it, I'll let you guys know if it works or not. If it does, It'll be a great and cheap performance mod.

Looking forward to feedback.

Three words: not worth it.

lpedreros · 09-29-2007, 08:46 PM

Is that your opinion? or is that experience talking?

*tk-421* · 09-29-2007, 09:01 PM

Experience, sadly. It is nothing more than a $1 resistor. It does offer a tiny bit of a boost at first, but the ECU ends up learning the new temp reading by the intake and the feeling's gone after a few days.

Please don't buy it.

All you will get is a Resister that will get soldered into your cars system... IT WILL DO NOTHING for you!

and... this subject has been covered. More than once, I think. The Search feature is very useful if you're new to the forum. I use it a lot.

lpedreros · 10-01-2007, 01:14 AM

lpedreros · 10-01-2007, 01:23 AM

Nevermind, I'm sorry for my newbness.

I searched for it and found my answer. Which is: NO. Because someone, heard from someone's dad that it couldn't be done. lol.

thatboyjer · 10-01-2007, 10:36 AM
