Default Power Control Module - Do they work??

I saw a Power Control Module in Eckler's for $250. Has anyone tried this product, and if so what were the results?

The clame is that the fuel and ignition curves are instantly modified, increasing both torque and horsepower through the engine's entire RPM band.

It gives an example of: 0.45 sec quicker in the 1/4 mile. How does that improvement relate to HP increase??

LS1 edit is only for 2001 cars up , right? Where do you go for a 98 and is it worth getting it reprogrammed for a 6 speed? :confused:

Eckler's says they have the 2002 jet module but it is really for an 2001 I ordered it and it did seem to make the shifting firmer but as far as speed difference there is none. So I returned it wouldn't suggest it to anyone.
