That's some normal B.S. buyers/sellers do to increase their feedback to B.S. levels. Still interested in hearing more about what this chip does though.

Damn, I just noticed this thing costs nearly $10. Was so keen but there's no way I can afford that

Well if you don't, by leaning out the mix. The factory mix runs rich, leaning it out makes more HP, but it is risky business. There is a fine line between leaning to make more HP and leaning too much and potentially damaging the engine.

I saw a documentary a few years ago where they did a Dinan reflash on a BMW 335 for 100 HP.
They also said not only was it legit but the mileage could actually improve. How do they do it and why it it possible? My guess it they kill emissions for one thing. I'd love to hear an explanation as to how there could be that much room for improvement in a tune.

A Google search for "astroturfing" would be appropriate for why the feedback *might* be so high for this snakeoil.
