Good selling tactic though isnt it ? lets face it, anyone who buys one of these for a tenner isnt likely to put the car on a Dyno to see if it works, so you might as well connect it to nothing.

Personally, I've already got a 'variable boost controller' that came free with the car - its the pedal on the right.......

Check the sellers feedback as well - only one person reports their car blowing up so far - wonder how many more will soon ?

Notice also its 'pat pending' - CAN you actually patent a pot and a bit of wire ????

Never ceases to amaze me the crap some people will buy for their cars ! dont they wonder why a proper boost controller costs a couple of hundred, not a tenner ?
