stevemac 0 Posted November 10, 2003 I think this item has been discussed a few times In short - the answer is no By all means buy it if you want to - but the answer is no, it doesn't work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted November 10, 2003 Wouldn't go near them all they are is a small resistor that you put on the lambda probe I think to fool the ecu to think it's running lean so it just richens up the fuel mixture no timing advance there!!! But what do you expect for under a tenner??? a Panel air filter would work much better and wont risk damaging your engine go and buy one of them instead if you want a lttle more power!

chris CORRADO 0 Posted November 10, 2003 ok cheers for the help i knew something was not right about those things........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted November 10, 2003 Avoid like the plague. As BANANA MAN said, why the hell would companies charge 500 quid for a rechip if there was some miracle cure that could achieve the same results for a tenner? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 10, 2003 Agreed, a complete load of cr@p. He hasn't even uploaded a pic of this amazing device, which is always the biggest give away it's a con. Kev Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banana Man 0 Posted November 10, 2003 I ordered one for andy linton on this forum ( 16valver) cost a quid (says it all really!!!)when it arrived it was a 10p resistor that you can get from maplins sent it off to him dont know weather he actually fitted it I know I wouldn't have!! best off staying well clear!!!

G60Jet 1 Posted November 11, 2003 I think i might sell the instructions for why you dont want to buy that +15bhp thing for 50p a go. I could make a fortune!! maybe we should do that for the forum fund raising!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted November 11, 2003 Yep seriously kev a very small resistor something like a 5ohm one sellotaped to a piece of paper with some half arsed instructions!! But what do you expect for a pound!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris VR6nos 0 Posted November 12, 2003 Plonkers the lot of you! He said a chip not a resister! Everyone knows chips come in bags not half arsed paper! Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But what do you expect for a pound!!!! proper bodge job duck tape for me LOL :D Chris read the the link to ebay the bloke says it is LIKE a superchip Not actually a superchip and this confirms it when you read on a bit further just above where it says free shipping to the uk it says ' This mod is a very small resistor'!!! You dont get a chip for £2!!! Now whos the plonker :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
