The last time I was at the dentist in the waiting room, I read an article (I think it was Popular Mechanics) saying that these type of devices actually made the test subjects operate 5% less efficient than stock . It is indeed snake oil.

I would take the $30 and apply it toward a worthy mod.

But it is very sad to have any product advertised on this Forum that is a POS.

Maybe these types of vendors should be banned!?
