our06t Mmmmm......BOOST Member 3,135 Member For: 17y 5m 7d Gender: Male Location: central coast Posted 25/04/08 10:58 AM Share Posted 25/04/08 10:58 AM the real dangerous part about these sh*t things is it actually works by trickin the computer into thinkin the car is always running cold ,so you always get that first run of the morning power ,wich would be especially deadly to a turbo car imagine your intake temps are actually 50 deg and the car thinks it's only 25 deg ,yeh lots of power =no rods ,rings ,bearings I'll buy 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fools the computer into thinking the car is running cooler like our06T said. I fitted one a month ago but had to remove it as the extra horsepower made the car almost underivable.
