    Question Chip

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultra-Power-...9ba61f&vxp=mtr

    I am sure this is junk. But interesting where it installs.

    In the air box/tube area. Little plug in device. Looks like it replaces some chip that is factory in line there.

    Heh heh, so every car made from...what was it, already forgetting...`89 to `13 could`ve been *that* much better had those dumb car manufacturers only figured that out instead of building `em the way they did, huh?

    That`s leaving aside the issue of buying such a miraculous product from "2015_tyrod" who doesn`t accept returns.

    I like the questions... If only you could see the REAL truth..

    Q: "Will this void my warranty?"

    Chip

    Do they make these for BMWs? I really want one. I`m looking to add like 200 HP, but save 15+ MPG...

    I knew these car manufacturers were conspiring with the oil companies.

    Re: Chip

    it is supposed to replace the intake air temperature sensor, not the maf sensor. it fools the ecu into thinking that the incoming air is whatever temperature the "approved" resistor they are selling you makes it think is incoming and modifies the fuel to match.

    short answer, it doesn`t work, dont waste your money.

    if you were to unplug the maf, your engine will go into limp mode and not rev over 2500 rpm, and you will kill your mpg and cats with all the excess fuel thats getting dumped in.
