2000 SSEI Performance
On EBay they sell what they are calling Performance Resistor Modules. Are these modules a scam or are they actually worth purchasing and installing on my SSEI to boost performance and gas mileage?

If its the one I'm thinking of, its more than likely a scam. It replaces the IAT(Inlet Air Temp) sensor and fools the PCM into thinking that it is like -100F outside which makes the PCM dump more fuel, which actually hurts your mileage.

Thanks Mike1995.
These things do not sound that bad in the descriptions on EBay. Thought I would ask here to see if they are actually legit or not. Anyway to save a little gas mileage and boost performance...I am always interested!!
