Chip for intake air sensor sucks!!!

Ya, I got my chip in the mail today and installed it to my Intake air sensor thinking I was about to get like 30-40 horsepower like it says it does and I was pissed. It feels like to me that it power away from my lower rpms and moves it to the higher rpms. STUPID. It does make my flows a little lowder though, I guess from the extra fuel I'm burning

You can regain that lost power if you add a Turbonator as well

If you double stack the Turbonators and get a Type R sticker, I'd recommend slicks

If you got the one I'm thinking of all it does is tricks your truck into thinking it's colder outside which messes with fuel curve. If you leave this on....you'll eventually damage your engine.

  • THROTTLE BODY SPACER
  • TORNADO AIR SPINNER
  • TYPE R STICKER NEXT TO MY SS STICKER NEXT TO MY CALVIN PEEING ON ALL OTHER BRANDS OF TRUCKS STICKER
  • REMOVED AIR FILTER AND BOX ASSEMBLY (WAS SLOWING ME DOWN)
  • ADDED SOME STP OCTANE BOOSTER TO MY 87 OCTANE GAS
  • OVERINFLATED TIRES
  • SHEET OF PLYWOOD SCREWED TO TOP OF BED (PAINTED TO MATCH OF COURSE)

You forgot the NOS sticker. You know that's good for at least a 50hp boost by itself.

Man, remove it now....it will damage these motors....

Then carefully pick all the hairs up that fell off your @ss (From when you was kicking yourself in the @ss for buying it in the first place) hold them to the chip, take one of the wires and wrap the hairs to the chip.... makes a nice fishing lure.... see caught you, works all ready, even better with hairs.

couldn't resist on that one...

all kidding aside, get that thing off your motor ASAP
