Anyone know what these are about, do they work or is a con?

I think it is a terrible idea fitting one of those. I wouldn't touch it will a bargepole.

 

IMHO

these are generally considered to be a con mate. im not sure of the technical side of it but they override a sensor reading or something to supposedly give you a BHP increase, but they probably knacker your engine.

as far as i know its a VERY cheap resistor that adjusts the signal to the ecu

"It will modify any standard ECU by telling the ECU that the incoming air in the intake system is cold and so advances the ignition to compensate producing more power."

 

Nice ... :eek:

Ah, think I'll be steering clear of one of these then, sounds like it could be pretty dangerous! Think I'll stick to me proper mods!

 

Cheers guys!

A few years back I got a simillar item on EBay for my Vectra and it ended up being a little electronic diode? with a wire each side and you are supposed to link it into the fuel injection system somewhere.

I never used it but it didn't look good??? :nono:

Nooooo!!!!! Run away!!!!!!!!!
