No.

Plain and simple No.

It's nothing more than a 20 cent resistor that tricks the ECU into thinking the air coming through the intake is colder than it actually is.

Cold air = more dense than hot air, thus the ECU will drop more fuel and you'll run pig rich until your O2 sensor says "wait a second here..."

Then the ECU will pull the fuel back and run like it did before.

So just No.

Garbage just like everyone else has said. CHEAP and FAST usually do not go together.

I wouldnt buy it. As a matter of fact I dont think I would buy any car stuff off ebay, unless I know for a fact its gonna work. Like exhaust and intakes.
