Sounds a bit sketchy...

Actually, there are several air intake tweakers like this one on Ebay. Just search "2005 Mustang Chip". Hmmm.

You get what you pay for. In this case, absolutely nothing. Stick with what's proven, let the rich and the magazines test these things out.

It's a piece, putting it on your car would do more damage than good.

With that many guys selling them, they must be selling quite a few. Amazing.

Just like that vortex turbonator thing. Claims to boost power anywhere from 0-75 HP.
