It'll give you maybe a quarter of a kw until the ECU figures out something is wrong and resets everything. Don't waste your money.

It's a con, plain & simple. KAM will undo any changes this makes to the fuel delivery when it looks at the O2 sensor(s) in closed loop. I tried to report this item to ebay, but recieved no response.

I hope that Ebay does crack down on blatant scams one day. There is an equivalent to this product in seemingly every department.

To the naive these sorts of (documented) scams seem brilliant till somebody with knowledge from here corrects them
May be an idea if EBAY cant censor this type of scam, to post up in a sticky here the available scams ie: exhaust spinners, intake chip etc will help most who get onto it here instead of being trapped or posting the same things over and over.

Swallow your pride and do proper mods. These are just blatent wastes of time and $$$
If it worked, it wouldnt be $18 GO get the shiftkit thats on ebay, that works a treat. $40

As for a sticky, I'm open to the idea. This is the only scam of its type that I know of, though. It is unlikely to cause major damage to an E series and apparently the ECU will eventually adjust and operate properly. |

"Lol" go the spinners Those inserts that go into the air intake pipe and suposedly increase power in the swirl motion Non genuine phenolic spacers (not all) but some fakes Read some of these things as well on here that are of no real gain if any.
