Long time lurker here.

So are these really that bad for your engine, or do they actually work safely? Interested in a chip/remap, but the whole idea of misreporting fuel load to the ECU doesn't seem safe.

Hey for that price - give it a shot - but I would check out some of the feedback the seller has first!

That makes for most amusing reading... "unfair buyer" seems to be their buzzword... and wow they must have email problems, cos apparently they don't receive an awful lot of them!

Watch out guys, look at the other stuff the seller flogs..

Then read this:

Read the section on the +20HP stuff, sounds awefully like the other products this guy is selling... Be real careful here, is my advice.

No such thing as a free lunch imho.

edit: haha, just read the doods feedback... oops.... Like I said, proceed at your extreme peril.

Why do people try and stinge out on this things. Do it right, and be thankful for all the R&D that the 'expensive' guys put into their product.

That's a great read - some excellent de-bunking going on!

That is some nasty ****e!! The scary thing is that many a bone head would be buying these chips.
So true, no free lunch and u pay for what you get.
I should show this one to Anthony Rodrigues Lol - some competition on the market
