Total scam and snake oil site.

You might as well buy a case of beer and pretend you're going faster.

To put it into perspective, on my Chevy truck, I needed to spend $6k to get 100HP out of a 300HP engine. But their magicaly 2 connector devices can get that same % gain out of a 328 for a mere, $69 (1/100 of the price!)

Their performance stuff is nothing more than the IAT hack you can find on the web. It spoofs the IAT into thinking it's colder, and richens up the engine. Catch 22 is engine has to require the extra fuel to make more HP. More fuel doesn't necessary mean more HP.....
