the link didnt work for me, but i bet i know what it is..

1. no it probably wont work

2. i hope people wouldnt have it on there skyline

3. IMO.. i would not buy it

4. probably will throw something out of wack. computer maybe..

reality is... if these crapchips really really worked and were that great! they would be on everyones "first thing to do to my car list"

up to you.. buy it try it and tell us that it will probably do more harm than good. thats my bet anyway..

i even got one for free i wouldnt try it.

Lol yeah I know these things! It's just a resistor that gets put across your AFM output, lowering the signal. Basically it just runs the engine slightly richer.

so it will work??and be good for the engine?

before you do ANY kind of modding:

Read through the forum on all the related topics for 3 months, then you'd get a good idea of how things usually work, what parts needs changing when you change one thing or two things etc.

Don't selectively read things that you think are important e.g. how to make flutter noise or how to make my exhaust sound like a jet plane. Read each related topics thoroughly and then you'll know exactly what you need to mod for what you want the car to do.

We've all made the same mistakes before, especially when we are new to the scene.

Leaner. Richer make less power on a car that has a stock ECU.

It might work. It might not be bad for the engine.

However, its some generic off-the-shelf resistor that affects your AFM signal to the ECU and has probably never been tested on a car similar to yours, let alone the same. If it was tuned perfectly for your car then it'd be as good as an A'PEXi SAFC.

If it works badly it does nothing at all, or kills power while increasing fuel consumption. If it works really badly it leans out your mixture to a point where it starts to detonate and you break something.

[Free_Spirit]

you get what you pay for. do you honestly think a $20 chip has any testing or proven benefits associated with it?

if you don't have the money to modify the car properly from the start than don't bother doing it all as it just leads to more problems down the track.

[dmr]

please don't put some ebay special crap on your skyline. get it TUNED properly, the results will prove.

Oops...my bad!

resistor = lower voltage = ECU "sees" less air-flow = less fuel = leaner

[gumflapper]

It will modify any standard ECU by telling the ECU that the incoming air in the intake system is cold and so advances the ignition by up to 2 degrees with more fuelling to compensate, therefore producing more power with more torque at lower revs. In many cases fuel economy is increased too.

so... u put more fuel in and then fuel economy is increased...

ive missed something... lol

go to servo

buy chips

put in glovebox

drive car home

notice there is no difference when chips installed in car
