              I doubt it does anything... If it does work, we probably would have heard about it from a reputable company... And yeah... that chick is hot. ;)

                        Both are WORTHLESS off the track.

                          April Summers, cool. Probably the best picture out of that whole set I saw quite some few years ago...

                          But really, that chip is useless.

                            They're full of crap. Besides, the resistor is not even street legal. I'd recommend having your Computer tuned by a professional shop.

                              Considering you're in Michigan, if you put that on right now, it would probably hurt your performance, since it would be saying the intake temp is about 40*, when it's colder outside than that right now
