Default cheep pcm upgrade what do you think?

hey check this out, i was lookin on the web and found a cheep "easy" way to build horsepower im not sure but it doesn't look it will work. if it does work would it work with a upgradeed chip like a jet?

looks like to me its going to be another cheap non working mod, i think your best bet is going to be a tuned pcm

Waste of money. It just lies to the car about how much air is going to it so you can either lean the car out for "better" gas mileage, or tell the car a ton of air is coming in and it needs a ton of fuel to "give hp"

don't think twice, just skip it

i heard it just acts like its cold out all the time or something and tries to bring in more air and can potentially be bad for ecu

Won't work for my car- Bugatti Veyron is not on the list. Guess I'll have to go to ebay for my performance mods instead
