WTF!! Does anyone fall for this.
Jon,
You are committing fraud in the truest sense. You *KNOW* what you are advertising is not an exaggeration, it's a lie. If you are making "decent money" off of these, it amounts to thievery. It's quite unfortunate that you are even allowed to sell these on eBay to people who do not know better. There is no way that you can defend this; it's just wrong.
Extends the life/quality of motor oil
Prevents corrosion on spark plugs and valves.
+60 horsepower at the wheels! Unmatched engine improvement!
+50 ft/lb of torque. More torque gains are possible when installed on trucks and SUVs!
16 to 18 more miles per gallon in city traffic.
19 to 21 more miles per gallon on highways.
So you freeze the IAT which dicks up fueling and keeps the PCM from being able to pull timing in summer time heat (which it NEEDS) and then you tell outrageous lies about what it "can do" and we are supposed to not tell people so that you can continue to steal money through dishonesty. I'm sure that your parents would be proud.

Jon, I tune cars every day, lie to someone else.
The *ONLY* thing that fixed resistor does is lock the IAT at a constant value. This screws up fueling a bit (nothing that CL won't adapt for though it's adapting to the screwed up scenario you provide) and could easily cause a LOSS of mileage. The HP gain is just stupid. IT DOES NOTHING. If you are locking the value in high, you are costing HP by pulling timing, and if you lock it in underneath, you destroy the PCM's ability to pull timing in hot weather to avoid knock.
Don't try and make me out to look like I'm wrong, I could make it a personal crusade to msg all of your buyers from feedback and show them this thread.
Putting a resistor in the IAT and claiming it does *ANYTHING FOR MILEAGE OR HP IS A LIE, AND THE PREMISE IS FRAUDULENT*
So John, since you so knowledgeable in this area and it actually "does what it says", here is your ONE CHANCE to explain it. Explain the process and I will let this die.

Maybe you're so up in arms because you lost business due to my product? I can guarantee that my chips work better than your tuning. That's probably the real reason for the inquiry, huh? Nice try.

John, you’re treading in water full of sharks here. The problem you are going to have is some of us "sharks" are EXTREMELY well versed in the ways of the LS Engine management system, so please do not try to BS any of us in here because it will not work.
I am very curious as to how you make these claims, and would love to hear an explanation of how you say it works.

Here is a dyno of a prototype I did for a CTSV a few years back. It's not the best gains because the guy didn't have the time for me keep his car and prefect the tuning. And in this instance the car gain roughly 12mpg on average.
The dyno graph you posted was from Carolina Auto Masters...Does Jeff Creech know about this little product you "tested" up there at his shop?
