Not a chance in hell. 30hp for 6.99? come on. Its just not possible. If it were true everyone in the world would have 6 of them. Dont buy it. Buy a SCT tuner. That will do 100x more than this redline thing

[sm=noooo.gif] it looks like a pre-packaged chip that isnt involved with your particular car...besides any chip for 6.99 is BS, let alone when its pic is "30+ hp for 6.99"...scamish to me...stick with something main brand

All it is a resistor. It wires into your intake temperature sensor. What it does is tell your motor that the air you are taking into your engine is cooler than it actually is. Thus dumping more fuel into the motor. They claim 20hp but it does nothing for you except possibly hurt your gas mileage.
Yes I fell for this one when I was young and inexperienced. [>:]

when you realize it, it could possibly flood the engine on a hot startup.... not cool
because the ECU uses that sensor to determine what kind of fuel mixture to run based on what air is coming in
WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME

Yea, I know these things sound like great deals.. But the thing to remember is that you get what you pay for. I wouldnt trust a 6.99 chip in my Mustang, but deff check into SCT you will not be dissapointed.
