but yea, this isnt a good mod....if it was, every rice burner and there dog would have one :lol:

That whole website is a joke. Very nicely designed and works well, but all the products are universal crap from Taiwan.

I've found you a better deal on the same thing which you have bought.

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=2162&TabID=1&source=15&WorldID=&doy=1m1

The sensors do a great job of telling the ECU exactly what is going on, and the ECU makes informed decisions based on this. You can fool it in to thinking its getting air which is more dense, and it'll add more fuel. However if the air is not more dense, you'll get unburnt fuel in the combustion chamber which at best is a waste of fuel and at worst will cause petrol to run past the pistons and dilute your oil.

You might even get a bit of ignition through compression which sounds boss but doesn't do your con-rods much good.

Did the increase in power figure not ring any alarm bells?

lol total rip off!!!!!

as james said they r the SAME thing if u open it u will see a resistor which fools the car into making it think that the air is colder/ more air going in. it is BAD for your pocket and car

just been talking to somebody whos used one and they say its pretty good and hasn't experianced any more or less fuel consumption! could this one i got being the genuine thing mean it works better than the £5 one off ebay?

AFAIK you can do the same modification as the thing you've just bought for £35 with 1 resistor....

you could have got it from ebay for about a fiver mate :|
all it does is cause the car to over fuel and it offers very little in return of wasting the 90pennies a lt fuel in your tank :|

Joff, wheres the throttol body? ned a detaild explination for spastics, including diagrams easy enough for spastics (i.e. me) to understand!


By your inlet manifold. I have no diagrams :(

May I suggest you don't fit the ITA afc semi conglomdulator.

posted on 1st Jan 05 at 18:55

dont see how that works...only thing it would do, would be to increase the fuel mixture - which rules out fuel economy :lol::lol:

i bought a celox power module and i can't find where to stick it in, the instructions go on about the cold air box and the throttol bodies, but i don't have throttol bodies as its fuel injected.

anybody help?
