In summary:
Don't expect 20hp off an 8 dollar "piggyback"

I would love to buy it just to see if it actually did anything period. I kinda doubt it...

Ok i have used this many times on lots of cars, it does work BUT NOT 20hp, not terribly worth the money considering you can buy a $.32 resistor at radioshack that will accomplish the same thing. Search under "resistor mod" and a how to will show up...you'll burn way more gas then rubber i swear....

Do not fall for this crap. That is not a "chip" at all, it's just a cheap resistor. The word "chip" is only used to fool unsuspecting buyers into thinking this is something far more sophisticated than it really is. That sort of marketing should give you an idea of how successful this mod is likely to be. Most of the info on that page is pure BS. Notice how they say this mod is for 3rd Gens too, but not Turbos? Doesn't sound like they know too much about RX-7's. Would you trust them with your engine?

I'm a noob and I would never believe in something like that. Reminds me of some silly Japanese racing movie I saw with a "racing chip" that made the car an unstoppable demon. Retarded...
