BrianBrave,

I am sure it isn't too terribly expensive - but there is more to it than those little IAT resistors that you see on ebay for every car known to man.

DanielNTX is more in the 'chip' field, and he could probably tell you much more about it than myself.

BUT, as far as I know, it does almost exactly what you said you could do to your ford truck - but it is done electronically. Knowing these cars, it is not as easy as some people may think, or as it may seem.

I got mine out of the classifieds for $200 and a pair of K&N filters included - I was going to buy one for $300 and see what I thought, so I couldn't pass up the 'used' deal.

It is 'in route' to San Antonio as of 10/2 11 am, so it should arrive tonight, and be 'out for delivery' tomorrow - I hope! It is scheduled for Friday delivery, but they come a day early every now and then...

If it comes in tomorrow, it will be installed ASAP and I'll report my un-biased opinion.

From what I've read, the only people who aren't very impressed with them are the guys with 600 hp Mercedes, and some of the guys with manuals because they make the throttle too 'touchy' and tough to drive the manual tranny. Some of the 55 series guys use them, and even with 400+ hp they still love the effect they have on the car.

Tune in later for an update.
