here is what is on the vemon site: http://www.venom-performance.com/nf/html/prodtoc.cfm

Incorporated into the Venom400 is an 8-bit micro-controller that is capable of monitoring the various sensor
inputs and modifying their outputs at more than 40 times per second. If you already have another performance prom installed not to worry the venom400 is a mid range performance chip and the prom chip is a wide open
throttle application thus complementing each other through the entire RPM band.

The Venom400 has an on/off switch so smog certification is possible without detection of unit.Easy installation with basic hand tools requiring only four electrical connections. Loss of gas mileage to be expected is 1-3 miles
per gallon in fuel economy. No significant damage or long term stress side effects in long and short range testing.

The Venom400 comes with all necessary hardware and installation instructions, Vehicle specific wiring diagram, and Decals.

well that guy is full of crap even venom say it will give you 25% tops......and thats when they strap it to a huge motor that would run 500 hp to begine with and some crappy inefficient ECU.....not 25% on a stock civic

note one of the reason venom has for you to buy it...lol;
Q. What's Deal With The Little Red LED?
A. The LED is mounted in the dash and will tell you when the Venom is active! Another benefit over PROMS or CPU upgrades.

The best way to use this site is to use the search button. You will learn a lot more by researching and reading other's questions and problems. Don't worry, i did the same thing when i was new to this site.

To answer you question, the venom is a waste of money. All it does is open the throttle more by a certain percentage thus making you think that you're going faster when you're not. Say you push the throttle 50%, the venom will push it to 65%. This process keeps going up until 100%. The venom cannot make your throttle go over 100%. So, a cheap version of the venom is your heavy foot pressing the gas more.

i know none of these really do anything but change the air fuel ratio at wod but does anyone know which one is better and will give you 1hp more than the other 2 or 3 you will get from either ?
