Performance intake module chip?
I have been looking on ebay, they have a Performance intake module chip,
What this mod does is modify your ECU with a Timing Advacement resistor. Anybody ever heard of this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...2456802125&cat egory=33597. Please check this out guys and tell me what you guys think. Theres many more like these mods, take a look and see what they say they,are they worth it? |
Re: Performance intake module chip?
Also I just looked this up NEW-CHIP TECHNOLOGIES NEWEST PERFORMANCE MODULE.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...2456574381&cat egory=33597 This one looks alittle better, any opions?

Re: Performance intake module chip?
I posted a message similar to this one and no one replied to it. (Subject
"IAT Sensor Mod") I guess no one here knows anything about them. Some help, huh? ;-) Anyway, the only thing I can tell you is that you don't have to pay $4.00 or whatever it is on eBay. Go to Radio Shack and you can buy 5 resistors for 99¢. What you need to do is look in a Haynes manual for the "normal" resistance that comes from your IAT sensor and then get some resistors that are slightly above and slightly below. (Because I still don't know if increasing or decreasing resistance is what improves performance, but for $2.00, what the hell) All you have to do bend the resistor into a U shape, unplug the IAT socket, and put one end in each socket of the connector. Just make sure you insert it firmly so it doesn't fall out. Then, just secure the end in some way so that the resistor doesn't touch any metal on the engine. You do not have to touch the actual IAT sensor. Just leave it as it is...unplugged in its place. Example. I have a 1990 Honda Civic LX 1.5L DPFI. "Normal" IAT resistance is between 1k-4k Ohms. I've been using a 5.2k ohm resistor in mine, and it seems to have beefed it up just a little. However, if you put too much on it, the Check Engine light will come on and the computer will ignore whatever resistor is in there and just guess, which means no performance increase. I have yet to try a lower-than-1k-ohm resistor yet to see of that definitely makes the fuel/air ratio leaner. My assumption is that the 5.2k ohm is making it run a little richer. Be advised, however, that in extremely cold areas where temp is almost always below freezing, this mod will HURT your performance. Only use this on days where temp is at or above 32º F, or 0º C. On colder days, leave IAT sensor plugged up.

hey man I really apreciate it, also i seen a reply saying he used 1.8k
resistance. Also will this wokr with a 96 honda cvic lx?

Yes. It will work on any car with fuel injection, regardless of make or

Re: Performance intake module chip?
Yes. It will work on any car with fuel injection, regardless of make or
model. Jonathan "amsjsj" <amsjsj@cox.net> wrote in message news:vZuRb.1141$fZ6.729@lakeread06... > hey man I really apreciate it, also i seen a reply saying he used 1.8k > resistance.
