I would stay away from it.
If you look at their write-up, it ISN'T a chip for the ECU, it is just a resistor pack that wires into the IAT. Basically, it is a $.30 module that makes the DME think the air entering the engine is colder that it actually is, thus tweaking your fuel mixture a bit.

Save your money!
