If it really had a great benefit like that and wouldnt decrease fuel economy too much, I think Toyota woulda put it in from the beginning.

All those "speed chips" do is trick the ECU into thinking the air going into the engine is colder, therefore more gas will be used, giving SOME power. But after a while the ECU usually figures something out and corrects it. Still, its a BS way of "adding power". Id say dont install it and go with something real, like and intake or exhaust. From an intake my butt dyno says there is slightly more power. But still, if you want more power, spend a LOT more money.

Your not ever going to get good power out of a camry unless you use nitrous or F/I. Spend your money on looks first then see if you still want to do shit to your camry...

I wouldn't do it. Especially if you live in a place with hot weather. That thing is there for a reason lol. Oh by thw way, how much were those? You know you can buy it at Radio Shack for less than a dollar XD. Its just a simple resistor.
