I guess it wouldnt hurt to have the ecu chip, but isnt that auction goin a little cheap for a chip? thought they was about 100 buck or so

Greddy dont sell stuff that cheap...Well...Most greddy stickers cost more than that..Its probally a big fat scam.

Its not a real greddy one. He makes them to accept up to the same psi as greddy kits. I was going to buy one before but another ebayer told me it was a scam

its not a scam its just not name brand.. He modified fuel and spark map ..rev limit just like greddy...... i am wondering if anyone has used it or something like it or has actual first hand knowledge of them..
will this git rid of the check valves .. i mean does it let the ecu know that your getting pressure to the manifold?

I got one for my car, still not on it, but I will let you know as soon as evrything is in. I have a D16y8 96-2000 Civic Ex, will run a OBD1 ECU from a 95 Civic Ex, with Skunk2 Conversion cable and the Chip. Turbo is an IHI Rhb5.

I bought one... 3 months ago... but i too never installed it... was going to but im thinking it might conflict with the SAFC... so im getting rid of it.... it might have worked... i will never know...

Im guessing it works on the same principle as when you remove the heat sensor, and plug it with a screw.. to trick the car into thinking its cold all the time so you run a little richer... or something ...

I know this aint the classifieds but if anyone wants it
15$ shipped... (OBO) a cheesburger or some chicken nuggets would be nice...

This is only going to increase your injection events duration.. You may still run into injector saturation problems.. Combined with bigger injectors and more fuel pressure this will work well...

I would be leary of buying any chip from a unknown source,, this is the easyiest rip off yet..

A freind of mine bought a performance chip for his grand national on ebay and the car wouldnt even run with it.. "probly a blank chip"
