More info on this "Z1 module"? It sounds fishy to me because you didn't
provide any information--is this an intake mod, an exhaust mod, a
miscellaneous engine mod, a turbo kit? Where's a website that shows
pictures of this "Z1 module" installed in a Hyundai automobile and
includes before-and-after dyno graphs? The headers on your message say
this was posted from near Chicago, Illinois--has a Hyundai group near
there been talking about some parts with "Z1" in their model#s?
You *can* get 20 more HP out of a V6 Tiburon without breaking the bank
or your back. Cold-air intake kit+K&N filter+replace OEM exhaust back
from the catalytic converter = ~25 more HP for ~$1000. Received
wisdom from the Taurus SHO people says the best, cheapest way to get
more power out of a car is to open up the intake and open up the
exhaust. Anything else (forced induction, N2O, etc) gets expensive
quickly.

Re: Z1 performace module
All of that stuff on eBay is crap. It is a $0.29 resistor from Radio
Shack in a box.
The idea is that it tricks the computer into thinking that the air is
cooler than it actually is. The computer responds by adding more
fuel. On a car that runs lean by deafult (like most domestics from a
decade ago) this will help and there will be a power increase. All
Hyundai vehicles run pig-rich from the factory so it just makes an
existing problem even worse. You will lose power and get worse gas
mileage.
