I am always cruising eBay, and you know I have never clicked on those "eBay special, chips," so I thought "what the hell" clicked onit, and I can't stop laughing! Then this crazy music started playing, and I started laughing more! This is just absolutly hilarious!

From other responses I've seen to similar items, it'* a thing that would fool your computer for a very short period of time (days or maybe even just hours). Your computer would then "relearn" the changes the chip made and return your car to normal performance ranges. It has been speculated that it may help a car for single 1/4 mile runs, but definitely not over the long term.

I concur..

However, the time to learn is probably less than 100 miles.. so don't expect it to last long. All it is, is an 8k ohm resistor.. with some wires and the correct plug.. that'* all there is to it, so if you are going to experiment, just use that $.30 thing from rat shack.
