Any one have feedback on this chip?

I was searching google for cheap performance mods
And came across this site called "GFchips.com"
Says it will add 70+HP but what gets me is that it's only $69.99
Something smells fishy here, anyone feedback on this?

For one, these cars don't take chips; they use software to make modifications. This is junk.

That is one way to get $70.00 for a .15 Cent Resistor.

It is amazing that they can get away with that too. And even more amazing that I'm sure people have bought it!

Your $$$ would be better spent on Ruffles. At least they're good for something.

And Ruffles have Ridges... The Ridges alone add 40 hp.

I think Original Cheddar is good for about 15RWHP
But Cool Ranch is worth 20RWHP and a 50 Shot......
