    Wow, all it takes for manufacturers to meet the proposed new CAFE standards is a $25 chip. Just, Wow.

    I wonder if they throw in a Tornado?

    How does somebody like that get 99.9% positive feed back after over a 1,000 transactions?
    ...and across the line.

    Just when my faith in my fellow Americans seems to be coming back on track I see this.

    I am guessing placebo... also most of the feedback is "recieved product".

    Some of the feedback:

    shipind is fast ,inthe best chip you can fine,my car increased 30 hp in dyno

    1st gear will cost tires 3rd gear 100km/hr 5th gear will get me speed tickets

    Fast shipment I noticed a change alrighty

    Fast shipping -- Fairly easy to install -- Seems to be making a difference

    Mind Blowing Effects! Better Horsepower, Throttle Response, & Gas Milage! Awsome

    Great Product, Great communication from seller, Have bought 3 now !!!

    Been had it. Sorry for delay. I hope it works.

    Just install which is simple and feel the F N POWER, Thanks dudes!

    Solid design! NOT a ten cent resistor taped to paper! Decent product worth $paid

    Compared to others I looked at product sounds good. cant wait to get it.
