Default Re: Performance Chips - Help

It seems to me that there has to be some shred of truth to the claims or they would be illegal to market. This is much the same as the Tornado devices that are continually marketed, under other names to, but they do have some credibility, athough I have never used these either. I surely do not want to try something that I can't get any testimonials for, either for or against.

Anyone who has had personal experience with these devies would be helpful.

you wanted an answer and I gave you one.......If I have to get long and drawn out about it I could........like for instance I could point out the link at the top of the page, right in between the "new posts" and "Quick Links".......it's titled "Search"

Maybe if some of you noobs spent as much time searching the forum you'd not need to search the internet so often for a "make tons of horsepower for no cash" type of deal.

Point being.....this subject has been discussed at great length many times before....people have tried them and paid the price for their "savings" on a power adding device that was not researched and tested. (do you really think someone in their basement knows more about the car than the Mercedes engineers?)

Moreover, if these resistors really worked, don't you think everyone on this forum would have one? The forum is all about improving the Crossfire.....but if you can't recognize a snake oil salesman, then by all means go ahead and try it! Be sure to let us know how it works! But, I'd like to know your VIN so we can log it as one that nobody wants to buy secondhand without a VERY comprehensive checkup!
