Tuned Engineering +15 mpg
Was thinking about geting one for my truck. http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQf...nedengineering
Any one used this? For 8 bucks I am kinda thinking of trying it. The feedback seems mostly positive. I find this hard to belive but one guy said he went from 15 to 25mpg. Dono about that much but with gas prices now days I think its probably worth a shot/ What do you guys think?

I would put the $15 you will spend w/shipping towards gas in the tank. Reviews say it is just a resistor.
Probably just like all the others that try and fool the computer into thinking cooler air is entering or something along those lines.

those resistors are crap !! by fooling the computer to thinking cooler air is entering, it wants to inject more fuel.... thus causing a slightly richer mixture, making more power, but worse economy. its really just wasting gas. i wouldnt believe anyone that said it was causing an increase in mpg's....... especially for a 15.00 price tag.
im with black04lariat.... go buy a few more gallons of fuel and actually have something to speak of for the money !!!
