yeap its like about 8cm long with this device in the middle of it.

only cost me £2.50 so i aint been done

 

[Roamer]

well cost price is about 1p so yes you have been done, throw it away and forget it, if anything it could harm your car, it certainly wont give you more power - if you want proper power have a look in the exterior/power/mechanical forum.

 

[deanosclio]

yeap been done then will be going in the bin mate.



what a load of bull**ks

All they have sold you is a resistor, they want you to put this into the connector that normally connects to your inlet temp sensor, thus telling the ecu a constant temp instead the actual temp - very pants and the more people who know about this scam (as that is all it is) the better well all be

thought it was to good to be true. what clio you got mate? a sport.
