    It would be a horrible thing in our cars.... wheel spin city. You are bound to have an accident in any turbo car with this mod, you would be on boost everywhere you go! Think of the fuel consumption

    hmmm it doesnt seem very plausible does it.......

    550aud...... many on here say that it could be better spent elsewhere, but on a N/A car, where? a remap would be potentially twice as much, and only yield 8hp at most at the fly, although it WOULD net 10nm or so.

    and after reading that pretty comprehensive document, it'd be a shame to blow more than half a grand on something that does nothing, essentially. 0-60km/h at 0.35 of a second faster? that would probably be offset by the weight of the unit, lol.

    amazing, though. alot of people are making alot of money out of this kind of stuff. see the celox instant +15-20hp chip (25c resistor-in-a-box-that-overfuels-your-car-without-microchipping-to-offset-potential-negative-effects)

    If drug companies can make millions selling a lot of the same, why not other people?

    because these arent people damnit! They are red assed gibbons!!!

    The analysis of the sprint booster was great. Not in that it disapproved of the unit, but in that it displayed it for what it really is. Oh, and in my last post, i meant 0.035 of a second.

    Just goes to show how pulverising the butt dyno can be.
