RobertISaar Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 at first it looked like a legit reprogrammed PROM, then i saw this: "and is connected via 2 wires that plug into the IAT sensor" total waste of money. it's the IAT trick that dumps in slightly more fuel at all times to "improve" fuel economy... until the O2 sensor catches up and learns the new fuel trims, after which, you would never be able to tell the difference between it being there or not.

Ramblin Garage Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 most of those chips that claim anything over like 15hp are usually fake unless you're running a turbo diesel lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 the product being sold is not a chip in any way, shape or form. it's a resistor you could buy at radioshack for ~$1.00 for 10 of them. as for a real chip, depends on the application. you can pull a lot more out of a TGP(or any factory boosted car) using nothing but stock parts (and maybe some upgraded injectors) than you could an iron duke.
