Generally these things are just pretty plastic and wires. You buy it, install it and since they said you would get an increase in power, your brain says "yeah, wow, it really did help, I can feel the difference."
The above commentary is based on actual experience, BTW. That's right, penguins ain't too smart. :p

I thought everyone would enjoy it....next will be the magic gas left me by the mothership that increases mileage 356% (exactly). Oh...no... that's Taco Bell...

I agree, it probably doesn't work, but I'd like to know what it is trying to do. Like the ad said, most of those other "chips" are really resistors which try to fool the IAT. This one seems different in that its pulling in the OBD port. What sensor are they trying to fool this way?
Anyone who wants to buy this be sure to contact me afterwords, I have a whole bunch of DVD rewinders for sale. :nah:

I like the generic power curves on a graph with no numbers. That's convincing.

If I buy 6 do I get 6 times the power? :spank:

I was thinking the same thing...love those super realistic and accurate dyno graphs!
what a stupid scam :( However, i can see how those who dont know any better could get fooled by these...I was there not long ago :( Although, i never actually went through with it like super smart Penguin

Ordered! All you suckers are wasting time with cams & super chargers.
Did you see the graph? I'm not sure what it was even a graph of, but the lines were going up in the right direction so it must be something good!

The one behind the wheel :)
My guess is that the chip isn't actually "doing" anything and all it is pulling from the diagnostic port is DC power for the blinky lights. The chip might be some sort of LED controller they have programmed to blink the lights in a seemingly random fashion so you think data is being sent and received.
Scammers.

Also prevents back pain.
(It thins your wallet, thereby reduces the likelihood of sitting on a fat wallet while driving, which prevents you from sitting crooked, which is good for your spine).
