Easy way for additional 60 HP???

Hey everybody. Anyone look at this chip to see if it really is worth it?

CHEVROLET COBALT GF Peformance Chip

Sounds very very too good to be true, but I thought I would ask.

Anybody have it, used it before or know anything about it?

Installation can be performed by anyone using simple hand tools. The GF module installs into your CHEVROLET COBALT's engine bay and is connected via 2 wires that plug into the IAT sensor. Diagrams are included. The unit is then able to reprogram the ECU thus improving your car's performance. Everything needed for installation is included in this kit for a quick and easy installation that shouldn't take more than 15 minutes. There is absolutley nothing else needed to have this installed on your vehicle.

LMAO

Edit: And wow...Ferrari's too! Same install, it's THAT easy! lol..

Rofl at the install into your IATs...

I can tell you that wont work. It wants to force your IATs to think they are lower than they actually are and increase fuel output is my guess..

Nothing can reprogram your ECu through a sensor thats just silly. Dont buy it.

I also purchased one of their purple power bands. The install was easy and now my power band is so much better. The car now tacks hard!!

LMAO. Go for it. But you'll need to retune your headlights when you install the electric supercharger.

No thanks. Did my research. Was just wondering if anybody actually tried it on here. I would be VERY skepticle of anything trying to reprogram the ECU or override it in someway.

My friend actually had a differnet plug-n-play one and tried it in his Pontiac grand prix GTP and it actually LOST him a ton of throttle response and a ton of gas mileage. Eneded up selling it to the nighborhood itiot for $125
