Waste of money. There is no chip they are going to put in the computer. It is a sealed unit unlike the old EProm days of car tuning.

Never use a chip. They will destroy your car

If 1 adds 50hp add 3 for 150hp.

They don't tune anything its just a resistor in a box that jacks up your MAF or air temp signal regardless of external conditions. Great way for your car to run like crap and have your engine go boom.

If something claims 5x the gains for 10% of the cost you should be running away.

Not this again, Gentlemen Please don't let your gullible side get the best of you.

If it sounds too good to be true it, IT'S a SCAM!!!!
