Volo Product Has anyone had any experience with their plug and play chip set yet?
It apparently splices onto the ODB2 connector.
What kind if any mileage increase did you see.

Well, got one and installed it a few days ago.
Had to put 120 miles on it before it "corrected".
I must say I am impressed as the low to mid range performance is felt.
Response has increased and starts and idle are perfect.
The engine has no rough spots, accelerates smooth with more torque.
Mileage so far looks better but I'll wait till I fill her up again to see.
One note is that on decel, it's quieter with less popping, not that it popped a lot before.
The 1st 120 were about 20% town and 80% freeway.
I'm happy with the 80 buck purchase so far.
Any further changes to the engine will require only a reset on the unit.

It's garbage and a scam. I'm sure if you rip it apart the wires just power the lights. If these chips were as awesome as they say there were wouldn't everyone have one?

What I have noticed so far is that it runs smoother, not that it ran rough before.
Low end has some extra torque that you can feel.
Quieter on decel; (less popping) I am running an SLP2 exhaust system.
And so far it looks like I've picked up about 2 mpg around town.
I have had to re set it once though.
When changing fog lights, I had the headlights on and used a battery charger to keep the battery charged.
It must of done something to it because I felt the car as it was before.
Just a button push when she was warmed up and it ran as before.

The only gains from the product are from the placebo effect. People want to believe that they have found an amazing deal and want to justify their purchases. I made the same mistake when I bought my first Camaro when I was 17. Any product that is pretty much solely on ebay, is a joke. I utilize ebay for MANY items, but automotive parts are not one of them. Unless you're buying a pre-owned part, you're most likely not going to get any "deals" on ebay. Do more research when purchasing upgrades for your vehicle.
