Plug in 20+HP....Is this possible?
Looking on Ebay, saw this.........The Performance Module Chip Kit Functions the same as expensive ECU upgrades and Performance chips, like the JET Chip. The Performance Chip connects directly to your vehicles IAT sensor to create a new more optimized signal to your vehicles ECU, This releases the potential of your engine by tweaking the fuel to air ratio to its perfection, causing a richer fuel mixture. COST $7.99
I'm not too confident you can get a HP boost for less than 10 bucks. Anyone out there tried this product or similar product with any success?

Don't think I'll be plugging one of these into my car. Just don't trust it to do what is says.

All that thing does is change the computers intake temp. AKA timing tricker.
25 cent resistor at radio shack does the same thing.
It tricks the car to think the temp is 34 degrees.

You only get what you pay for. But there are no dumb questions here. Glad you asked before you wasted your money.
