I doubt it will work for the Hybrids, if it works at all!

 

I doubt it works on anything.

However, that's me, I'm a pessimist. It would be nice if there was some magic chip that could deliver more HP and more MPG with a simple install, but if there were such a thing, wouldn't you think Ford or someone else would be using it to help their own vehicles for CAFE and advertising?

 

If you want to buy that, then let me tell you about the blinker fluid I sell. I'd also give you a deal on some HID tail lights.

 

I'm sure it just spoofs the O2 sensor voltage to bias it to the rich side, making the engine run leaner. Hence, why it won't work for diesels or turbo/supercharged engines.
How they can claim it won't affect emissions or your warranty is beyond me, though.

 

Read the negative feedback,

The buyers only got a resistor and some generic instructions, not a chip. One single resistor...
They paid over $6.00 for shipping and the resistor was sent in an envelope with one single .42 cent stamp on it.

It amazes me how many of these sell and no one complains, or if you look closely how many feedbacks are "mutually withdrawn".

Making money by ripping people off, sad to say it's the American way.

To be fair, that is pretty common on eBay. EBay doesn't charge its commission against shipping charges, and many sellers "hide" their profit there.

One of my pet peeves with eBay. EBay makes no attempt to protect users from intentionally false "revenge" feedback. I have even filed complaints with eBay where the seller specifically states in their auction that they will file false bad feedback against any buyer who dares to file a true bad feedback against them. EBay responded to me that they never take any action against such sellers as a matter of eBay policy.

 

Resistors cost $0.01 ea. in qty!
