ebay chip, you've all seen it Options

[nicksceli]

i know that everyone has seen this so called "performance chip" for sale on ebay. it promises to add 10 to 20 hp. well i always thought it was crap and would never consider buying it but i have a friend who spends all his spare time online and bought this thing off ebay for me. its just a wire looking thing that is supposed to plug into the intake temp sensor and from what i got out of reading the instructions it just tricks the ecu by sending a signal saying the air is actually colder than it is thus adding more fuel. i was gonna put it in and give it a try but i don't know if its a good idea. from reading it i think i would be running rich. but i don't know that much. would that really be bad for the engine? is this thing worth a try? i don't really care either way since it was free and all but if it would make any difference i figure its worth a try if it wont be disasterous to my engine. give me some input what do you guys think

hey west minist they do not understand that most horsepower does not come cheaply or spending atleast a moderate amount of money.

Boy is this going to be long.

That is true.

Regardless if you sweep the street, it will always cost money.

I ordered a Nology coil last week and I have alot of people running me down for it. cost cost cost. That is all that you get.

So everyone, I understand your problems.

That is my this normal mod is th cheapest and slightly dirty one to get more hp.
