no it doesnt really do much. you plug it into you IAT sensor and it makes the computer think the air coming in is alot colder than it really is, thus the car uses more fuel.

stickers u have to place strategically cuz if u place too much on side that side is only gonna get the hp and ur gonna pull

with this it distributes all of the massive gains equally
