SPEEDCHIP on 89 sr5 carb

[CodyjCA]

im thinking about purchasing this speed chip off ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33553
will that work and acutally make a difference on my 89 corolla sr5?

let me know if it works im not to sure about them they say 20 hp increase i think THATS alot of HP for just what 20-30 bucks sounds a lil iffy to me lol

but if you buy one and it works then i buy one too haha

I don't know too much about the SR5, but has it got the 4A-F or 4A-FE? Cause I don't see how a carbed motor will benefit much from a chip. Plus, if it's just a resistor (like other "performance chip" junk on ebay), I wouldn't trust it.

Just a random thought.

it;s nothing more than a resistor. i believe they cost a whopping $.10 at Radio Shack.

waste of time and money.

[Timberland]

Haha ya that's not gonna do anything on the carbed 4af.

[falnfenix]

it wouldn't do anything anyway. like i said, waste of money.

but HEY if you wanna get it, pay me the money and i'll install it for you

Cost for resistors are 10 pcs for $0.10. They won't even sell me only one
Get a 20K reisitor and remove intake temp sensor, put the resistor across the plug to replace the sensor.
Yea, 20K for 20HP, 15K for 15HP, 10K for 10HP gain

[CodyjCA]

so that chip wont do anything on my carbed car?
im not sure if its just a resistor or not

[Chris Corolla S]

that thing is so BS.
Where does it describe what it is and how it works?
It doesn't, because it doesn't

Yea $25 resistor to replace a $200 piggy comp? When its too good to ture, it alway is. If you still think it works, I'll trade the computer you're using now with a bunch of resistors

[falnfenix]

but hey, if you want to waste your money to learn the hard way, be our guest. just do me a favor, k? don't come crying when it does nothing.

[repinS]

Does the 4A-F even have computers to put resistors on? I mean, a carbie motor is so simple, I'd think it's mostly, if not all mechanical.

hahaha... you're buying this chip for a car without an ECU??

acquiring a Trueno badge from ebay doesn't count as "shopping for mods" Ichi!!
