this auction is for a Performance Chip / Timing Kit. All vehicles have an Electronic Control Unit (ECU)—a computer chip that electronically manages and monitors your car's performance—that is made according to government regulations. That means that your car could be going a lot faster and getting more power if you replace the ECU. that could cost up to 2000 dollars with a real chip. this mod will modify your stock ECU with a Timing Advance resistor. This resistor connects to the car's ECU by replacing the Intake Airflow Temperature (IAT) Sensor. Once the resistor is installed, the ECU will read that the air coming in through the intake is cold air; think of it as a "default" setting on the ECU. When the ECU reads this, it lean out the air/fuel mixture—in other words, it will take in more air, and then add more fuel to compensate for the extra air coming in, thus, producing more power and advancing timing 1 to 2 degrees. Because the engine is creating more power, it will need more fuel; so the fuel economy on the car will increase 1 to 2 miles per gallon (MPG), but definitely not more than 2 MPG. Give your Car or Truck up to 20 More HorsePower!! 100% SAFE, 100% LEGAL!! i use it on all my vechicles and all my friends do too. if we trust it you can its the easiest and fastest mod to install. YOU WILL ALSO GET LIFE-TIME Guarantee, This mod will fit most fuel injected models (non-turbo) of cars and trucks from 1988 AND NEWER. No tools are required and this mod will not damage your car in anyway. I have installed this myself in Less than 10 Minutes.LIFE TIME Guarantee, IF YOUR CHIP BURNS OUT, WE WILL REPLACE IT FOR FREE!! No tools are required and this mod will not damage your car in anyway. Your car will accelerate faster and have a higher top end speed. This is a great mod for any car, and could give you up to 20 hp more. this mod comes with easy to follow instructions to install only takes 5 min to install . this mod is as fast to take off as it is to put on if you would have a reason to take off but i can't think of any. i accept paypal, billpoint, moneyorder. winner pays 3.00 shipping. please send paypal payments and all questions to visionmod@yahoo.com MOST COMMENLY ASKED QUESTION WILL THIS MOD WORK FOR MY ______ VECHICLE ANSWER IS AS LONG AS ITS 1988 OR NEWER AND NON TURBO IT WILL WORK. to buy it now for 15.00 email me

That is complete B.S. DO NOT buy that!

all it is, is a resistor that connects between the wires coming off the air temp sensor. it does work but theres no way in hell it gives you 20 hp maybe 5 at the most. my friend did it on his cavalier i dont know about an rx-7 though
