This CAN'T be real
Been playing around looking at prices for used parts on ebay and I came across this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PERFO...%3A1|72%3A1171
25$ for +100hp and +30mpg sounds like a GREAT deal.... haha
But seriously, whats the deal with these performance chips?

Haha, common, its 25$! That's alot of money. If I am going to spend that much I demand AT LEAST 100 hp!
Do these chips (not the one above) actually improve anything? In other words, if you are going to get the tune on the Cobalt is it worth it to spend 30 or 40 bucks on a chips for a few hp and mpg?

I could put my pubes up for sale on ebay and someone would probably buy them...
if you could really get 100+ HP for $25, don't you think everyone would have them??
if anyone is dumb enough to believe this will actually work they deserve to be kicked in the face.
...oh yeah and...

awesome!! its what i always wanted!!
also if you read the page it says in the "Benefits" section 70+ hp and 70+ torque...im pretty positive that 70 doesnt mean 100 (knowing full well of course that this thing does not work) they can't even false advertise correct!!!

**** i better get like 1013532 of these and i will be the fastest car on the .net and redline forums.
also to clear things up... everyone on ebay is not a "CHIP" it is a box with a resistor in it that tricks the computer to think its colder and the air is more dence( hence more fuel ) or vice versa... more or less resistance. most of the time when people do these they get black plugs or they get a super lean motor.
