You don't want it if you have had your car tuned or going too. The tuner will set the timing and your A/F mixture to what works the best.

It is junk, you will ping all over the place with this. It tricks the pcm into thinking the air coming into the MAF is 52 degrees. It plugs into the IAT. Dont waste your $$, SLP sells them.

30 Something Neg's in their feedback. I would be pretty timid of doing business with them.
Just my 2 cents

Read the feedback, this guy sells instructions on how to do these mods, not actually sending you anything except for maybe a resistor. Total rip off.
