It's funny how they word things in the ad.

+25HP PERFORMANCE CHIP TOYOTA COROLLA/CAMRY/LE/SE 89-08
Since when is a resistor that can be bought at Radio Shack be a "chip"?

PLUG IN UP TO AN ADDITIONAL +25HP!!!
Notice it says UP TO. Like everything else, your results may vary. You'll probably get -25HP.

It also says it's 100% legal but it "tweaks the fuel to air ratio". To me it sounds like it's messing with emissions which is probably illegal.

This is a resistor that will plug into your AIT(air intake temp) sensor and modify your AIR/Fuel ratio and slightly change your engine timing to run stronger and with increased power.
WOW!!! That "chip" suddenly turned into a RESISTOR!!!

Looking through the negative feedback the seller sure has a bad attitude.

Overall, I wouldn't buy it.

those things change the resistance of what the air intake temp sensor sees. if you have a chilton you can see what the different air temps the sensor reads in ohms. But these are all mainly school projects in money making ideas and how to apply them in the real world.

besides if anything it would make your car dump more fuel in and run richer than a toyota already does. which would make it slower. plus everyone will make fun of you. I've always wondered if the iat would run in closed loop. or if it even can.

If everyone had common sense we wouldn't need lawyers. Hmmm, that's a nice picture isn't it? :naughty:
