I got two of these kind of devices for my diesel suburban and buick park ave. They don't seem to do much. I may get 2 more MPGs.

I do regret spending the $$, but such is life!

They usually only work with FI. It is just a resistor that you usually put in place of the intake air temp sensor to fool the engine into thinking the charge is much cooler so it will pump in more fuel. This might try to fool the TPS, that's about all we have that is electronic.

These snake oil sellers are all over the net......wouldn't doubt if some comes across this shister trying to market the exact same "product" for the Ford Mustang or some other muscle car. If I had F.I., I wouldn't waste the money on it. Besides, if you had a warranty, it would more than likely void it......30 h.p. gain??????? Isn't that a third of what the standard R* has???? Dude......I've got OEM turn signal issues and don't want something else that would create some.
