Never heard of these guys before, and haven't really surfed through their site. Looks interesting though. Doesn't look like alot, but it may grow in time.

Gain 5-7 HP for your Camaro, Firebird, Impala, Caprice, Front Wheel Drive W-Body or truck for under $30.00! SLP designed this plug-in module that attaches between the air temperature sensor and its harness. It "advises" the PCM to provide maximum spark advance (1 to 2 degree increase) yet still retain proper knock sensor and engine function. Designed to fit most 1993-2001 GM cars. Installs in minutes. OFF-ROAD use only.

yupperz. if your pcm advances timing, and then from its other sensors see that you're not running 'efficiently', it'll pull it all back out anyway. our pcm'* may not be masterminds, but they're not stupid either (most of the time)

Nice for track use, or hitting some streets in search of rice.
