Default Performance chips?

Maybe this has been discussed before, but I would like to know if anyone has ever tried this chip out. Does it work?

Dont waste your money till you do some serious tuning like a S/C then you will have to get one.

ive seen those before. its not a chip, its just a resistor you can buy at radio shack for $.50 it sits (smashed) in between the plastic socket connects to the MAF sensor. it tricks the computer into thinking the air coming into the intake is colder then it realy is. this leans out the air/fuel mix and adds 1-2 degrees to the timing. save your money

A couple other people were talking about that and said they liked it. One said they'd been running it for a year with no problems. It's up to you.
