Does not take off speed limiter for fear of breaking the law. Yet they condone sneaking around you're warrenty company. Yet another scam. If it don't remove the limiter it ain't a chip.

I like how it says in big letters "has been shown and tested to increase: Gas Mileage (when your foot is not on the floor!)"

And then it says "Does it increase or decrease my MPG ? No, your gas mileage will be the same. Any change is virtually unnoticed."

Doh!

I believe it is just a varriable resistor that you can install in to the intake so it thinks it is colder but the neet thing is you can adjust the usless thing

Honestly, I think it will harm you're performance. Just stick with the experts. ZZP, Intence, 3800 Performance. Don't mess with people that don't know sh^t about the 3800.

It'll help by about 5hp for about 5 minutes. Then the O2 sensor figures out what'* going on. Worthless POS. MYTH.
