Just a heads up, IMO chipped cars are harder to sell.

If that's no concern then I would say go for it. You could be rolling coal tomorrow.

From what I hear and read, these powerboxes trick/fool your ecu by sending it false data.
Dunno if That's true.

That's exactly how they work. I used to sell another version but they all do the same thing. They make decent power but on a street car I don't know that I'd do it. It's more plugs and electronics and it seemed like we heard way more problems with them than a straight ECU reflash.
