Racing-x Performance Module

i was just browsing thru ebay and came upon this. Do you guys know if this will actually increase the hp 10-20? If it does.. it's not bad for 30 bucks.

Thank ahead of time

Of course it will! Everyone has one... $30 for 10-20hp its an amazing deal... why spend $600-$800 for a mere 4-10 WHP doing IHE and get this instead

no man, that's the most ridiculous claim ever. you will NOT get an extra 10-20 hp. in fact you'll prolly lose 4-5 hp and you'll get much worse gas mileage and prolly fail emissions too.

There was a test on one of these products in a magazine (forgot which one), and they tested I believe it was a stock 92 si and it lost 3 whp.

just keep in mind the basic principle... you pay for what you get...

from what i've seen... expect $100/whp gain! unless you go for a turbo... but a well-built turbo can cost you too... horses are expensive! hahaha....
