ebay "speed" chip "OH MY 20+ HP" rofl

I just wanted to know if anyone actually got this and put it on? Is it not just a resistor? So, who got ripped off

you know you want to get it. Your just posting to see if someone will tell you "Hey man don't laugh that thing works." Instead of creating a thread that says " Hey will this ebay chip really work." Kinda like a cover up.....i guess i read to much into your post but the only reason why i said that is hopefully people on here enough common sense to know that is ****ing crap and not to post stuff like that cause it's been posted so much.....you could use a resistor to....it tricks something into doing something but all i know is it's not worth me looking into what it does.

Aw, your ruined it. Acutally my best friend bought it, not listening to me after I told him it was a resistor. He's the guy who showed me 7thgen.com, hence me being so new. He told me someone on 7thgen told him to get it, and that many of the guys used it, i figured it was a cover up so i'd stop making fun of him. But, I had to post, and see if anyone actually did. I figured everyone would luagh, but you tottally ruined it. Damn you. You coulda let it go on a little bit. I'm surprised you think I'd want that, with my list of mods, you think i would buy that? hehe! Anyway, i'll explain what it is. It is a small resistor that tricks your ecu into thinking that the incoming air via your intake is actually colder than it really is. But after awhile your ecu overrides it and fix's it and it no longer works

Once again, DAMN YOU!

Big speed gain.
