i would not waste my money on that it is basically a resistor in a box that fools ecu in to thinking it is taking in cold air.
i would of thought fuel consumption would be crap aswell.
you would be better off getting a proper remap in my opinion

Its an absolute, pile of horse-sh*t, dont bother with one unless you enjoy paying for rebuilds...

Tidgy

dicking with the engine timing without the ecu knowing?

please record the sounds as youe engine blows to bits

lol,

the theory behind it is ok, in as much as you adjust an input to give a different out put, a very rudamentry remap.

however, the issue comes in that theres more than one setting to an engine map and not setting all correctly can cause them to go pop in sometimes big fassion. so shall let otehr do the math on that one

Taken from the web:

"How does it work?

It will modify any standard ECU by telling the ECU that the incoming air in the intake system is cold and so advances the ignition by up to 2 degrees with more fuelling to compensate, therefore producing more power. In many cases fuel economy is increased too. Power is increased by up to 15BHP and torque is increased significantly."

Two conflicting statements here surely?

My advice is to run, as fast as you can, gibbering for the hills before even considering one of these lol .

Tidgy

so i'm guessing we should add you to the 'not buy one of these' list of people then
