No.

Its in the FAQ, all it does is tell your engine the weathers really cold all the time to make it inject more feul. But theres a reason your engine injects less feul when its hot.

Also 20bhp from £4.50 is lolable

When it comes to performance mods, only use ebay for probably manifolds and exhausts lol... not chips cos they're shite... go on kam racing's website to look at performance parts...

I was saying that its better to ask a question, that waste the money on a "performance chip" & overfuel your engine - not slating!!!

Remember the golden rule - if something seems to good to true, then its probably isn't!

No way!!

T'is bollax! My mate had one, last a week with it before he took it back off.. caused his car to cut out every now and agen at junctions/roundabouts because the car was being told to inject more fuel than was needed.

Over fueled and just cut out.

Best off leaving it mate.

Best way to sum it up - its not actually a chip of any sort. its a resistor that can be bought for a few pence from maplins and the likes..

you got that response because there are stickies and FAQ's you should of read before posting that would have told you they are utter shit and would have prevented another person from asking a silly question and cluttering the forum up
