hmmm, how is that a performance chip? if anything you could call it an electric turbo, but from reading the forums and the multiple posts on that same item I'd say it aint good. Its a piece of crap that does nothing more then restrict air flow. But hey, its only 60, buy it and let us know how it goes :D

Just some light reading on the subject, but to summarize, most people are convinced it's a scam.

"I purchased two Turbonators for my Chrysler Sebring and immediately noticed the increase in power. It was more than I expected. I am already noticing the improved gas mileage. I like them so much, I am ordering two more for my brothers. Now, it feels like my car has a turbo charger." -
I wonder if this guy has ever been in a turbo car before?

well, he's a doctor, he knows a lot :D Plus 2, thats twice as good as one. And even better gas mileage, I should get 4 of them and daisy chain them, AND get that gas pill that doubles your gas mileage that whay I'll go a month without having to fill up the tank. Damn I'm so smart. I'm buying them right now.

I've seen some before for My old Grand Am I had. They where reletivaly cheap and I though why not. But I had someone inform me that all it realy did was set the temp gauge to think it's always a certain tempature so that it would give out a different air/gas ratio. This would give you a little more (possibly 5) in the right conditions. but if it got hotter or colder out then you would eather run rich (too much gas) wasting gas and loosing power or run to lean (not enough gas) where you loose power again but could damage your engine.
I would suspect that chip is probably the same. You never know though.

Alright, if you think you know so much, how about you try that chip out.
P.S. Have you ever even opened your hood or do you pay someone to do it?
