o god not this thing again, lol . Its just a transistor that you can buy at your local radio shack for like 50 cents. All this resistor does is fool your car into thinking its sucking up cold air, when in reality its really sucking up hot air. In the long run I herd it ***** up ur car, and messes up ur map sensor i believe, or something like that. So, I suggest you dont get this, its a waste of money.

Seriously, when you find crap products, don't put a title like that on. I was thinking there was a new Jet chip or something good for 20hp, but it was a joke. Please stop.

hrm . . so someone tells you that water you're are drinking is cold. then you take a drink and realize it's hot. You're still drinking hot water. get it?

The car reacts off of what the temperature is, not what the ECU tells it. It's not gonna pump out more power just because it thinks it's cold. . Just like it doesn't pump out less power if it thinks it's hot. If it's hot, it's hot and sluggish. If it's cool it's cool and responsive. That's it. If you beleive this thing then you need to be hit. It's common sense.

norek, the guys here have told you the truth about it, if you want to go out and **** up your car then do so, but to be honest, is a 20 cent transistor worth thousands of dollars that it could cost to fix your engine?

ohiojosh78 can only hope to improve
ok guys you might laugh at me and tell me its BS but i went to Radio Shack and found the resistors. They are only $.99/each. I installed it and i could REALLY tell the difference. Maybe its because i have I/H/E but WOW it was like day and night. Its the best mod for the money. I could even dare to say that 20HP is an understatement!!!

PS as soon as RadioShack opens up today i'm gonna go buy a few more and put them wherever i can find a place for them on my car. Does anyone know for sure if it will help to put some in the cigarette lighter wire?Also, I figure if i put them inline in my RCA's for my radio they might give me a few hundred more Watts also.

Let me know what you guys think!
