Default Z1 Performance Module Kit.. Legit?

My cousin just e-mailed me and said he wants to buy this for his car.

His money, not mine, but does this stuff really work like it says?

hmm.. How should I talk him out of it then? I don't want him wasting his money, he needs to hook his car up.

Its just a resistor in a fancy box that advances the timing.

Yeah, looks like one of those resistors. Dont they just increase the amount of air in the engine?

The baseline HP for the Accord dyno is 218! If their power claims are legit, it definitely wasn't on a stock engine. Tell him to save his money.
