    Give it a try and report back with a review of value... advertising indicates “Unmatched 100% Money Back Satisfaction guarantee. If you are not happy with your purchase, send it back for a full refund! What do you have to lose!? Pays for itself in no time!”

    HOWEVER, I would ask one question since the unit changes the ECU programming “The module optimizes functions such as ignition timing, air fuel mixture, fuel maps and produces more power and better gas mileage.“. I would inquire how to return the ECU to factory state should one not be satisfied with the product results...

    p.s., get ready to be blasted with ovtune fanboy info...

    "Do I need any special tools or automotive knowledge to install?

    No! Unlike other products on ebay which require you to cut into your sensors in the vehicle; this product is truely 100% plug n play. It only works for vehicles 1996+ and is tuned for your model. Many sellers on ebay sell modules requiring cutting into sensors that can damage your engine! They don't tell you this until you get the product. Watch out for those cheap $10-50 mega horsepower products. They are all gimicks and basically a plastic box with empty space."

    "How much horsepower will I gain?

    Results do vary and can sometimes take up to 2 weeks to see results due to computer learning. Stage 1 recalibrates the ignition and fuel based on the variables such as the fuel octane, ambient air temp and other sensors in addition to driving style."
