Ford Modchip...+20 HP

Has anybody tried something like this? It's only $7, but I can't figure out if it's even worth my time to try and install. If anybody knows about this, or better yet, has tried it; let me know if/how it works.

I'm guessing it modifies the TPS signal to read WOT. This puts the system in open loop and eliminates the feedback control throught the O2 sensors. It may or may not make marginally more power, it will screw up your emissions and it will burn up your catalytic converter. Put this one in the snake oil category

There's also a similar product out there that fools the computer into thinking there's more air coming in. Same effect: richer mixture, failed emissions and eventually ruined cat.
