CHEAPEST performance mod ever. (IF it works)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PERFO...ayphotohosting
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. |

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.

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.
