Xeryon Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 What I find funny is how many of those cheap "mods" that seller moves, and suprisingly the only negative feedback they have is from a bad shipping department. Either a lot of uninformed suckers out there, or maybe they might have something.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcat467 Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I guarantee he made those feedbacks up. There's like 10234790823 different people on there who make that same little thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 You can't make them up. Each of those feedbacks is from a legitimate buyer. ebay system doesn't permit you to leave feedback unless you actually completed a transaction, and it tracks customer account ip addresses to insure that multiple accounts are not originating from the same ip. I'm not saying it isn't a scam, it's just peculiar that he has such a good rating when selling such junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I wouldn't doubt that it does to some extent, but at what negative impact? I would guess that your milage would tank a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS John Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 hahaha.... My friend, who bought a used 2006 base level tib for 13 grand (strongly against my advice) just recently told me he was looking into getting a chip to increase his power for it.... There's really nothing that needs to be said about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 What I find funny is how many of those cheap "mods" that seller moves, and suprisingly the only negative feedback they have is from a bad shipping department. Either a lot of uninformed suckers out there, or maybe they might have something.... It's not a chip but usually a resistor which changes the airflow reading. This in turn changes the fuel air mixture, which can increase acceleration at a cost to efficiency. Who knows what long term damage is caused though. I have read that some ECUs work out that the mixture is wrong and make changes to compensate for it. The bottom line is simple - if it was such a great mod it would be used in racing and cost a lot more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
