I was looking up parts on ebay and I have a hard time believing that these 15 $ dollar chips doing anything for your car...Anybody ever bought one?

I am trying to keep a budget while adding the most affective mods only and some things for appearance...Any ideas?? Thanks!! Oh yeh and its a 06 SS 2.4.

What a crock of shit, there aren't even any details, and the picture is cropped so much that you can't tell anything about the chip. I have half a mind to just email this guy and tell him he's full of shit!

THe Wierd thing is you would think there would be a bunch of negative feedback if the thing was bogus...or just a lot of retarded people!

it wont help and if our computers have any intelligence then they reset themselves after like a week back to stock specs, at least thats what my celica used to do even on high end computers

Those things don't do crap... the reason he dosen't have alot of negative feedback, is because Ebay is easy to hack. 10 mins with some basic programming experience will result in 1,000's of 'legit' positive feedback...

All of those 'chips' are crap...
