I would have to disagree. It is possible to modify the signalling to the ECU and increase performance, maybe not 20+ HP but it is possible.

But this is not the product you want to do it...

YES-it is possible...and for $69.99 I'll sell you a "Turbonater" electic turbo kit that will bump HP up another 25+. Together they give almost 50 hp under 100 bucks...not bad! You will be the MAN!!!







-I apologize... I couldn't resist the chance to be a "smartass"... Neither mod will provide any benefit to your car...sorry.

I believe that these are all "home made".

No. You would be better off spending your $9 on some good wax to decrease your drag coefficient.

I don't know how many brainy Honda engineers have worked to create the NA engine with the highest specific HP output on the market today. And some cheap gadget will improve on this? Hmmmm...

Yes it will work and it's dyno proven...you can change the signal to the ecu from the intake air temp sensor. You can make the ecu think the car is colder than it is and advance the timing. As our car get warmer the timing is decreased. Dynos have proven as much as 5-10 hp at the wheels just with this mod.....

You can do the same thing by swapping out your thermostat for a 175 degree unit instead of the 199 factory unit...

Then the car will run cooler.
