Friends: 0 | 100% JUNK! All those "chips" are is simply a resistor that changes the air intake temperature reading to the ECM, so it richens up the fuel mixture all the time. Its NOT a chip by any stretch of the imagination, and keeps your car in "warm-up" mode all the time, hurting gas mileage and emissions. Jeff O. http://www.dsmchips.com Quote:

Friends: 0 | I have never bought one of these but have seen them around for other cars alot. Was thinking it would be cool to have a so called "boost" for when that GT is egging you on at the stop light!  Viro |
