z1 performance module

[metalicsnake]

i have found a zerogravity z1 performance chip. supposed to be able to install in bout 15 minutes. and increase hp 13-22.5. just wondering if anyone knows about these and if they really work.

the words; dsm, chip, and performance in the same sentence = scam

All of those "chips" are complete bullshit. They're a resistor in a box which makes your engine think it's not warming up, and keeps it running in what amounts to "choke" mode all the time.
They are completely BULLSHIT.

They will give you NO power gain at all.

There are actual chips which you can get for modern cars, including DSMs, which are re-flashed EEPROMs and go into a socketed (or, 95) ECU and which will provide various features and benefits. They cost considerably more than $20.

And no, electric superchargers don't work, either.

Credit to you for asking before getting suckered.

More than glad to. Sometimes finding the straight answer on these things is elusive.
