The number of cars they have chips for is highly suspect. I seriously doubt some no name company has the expertise to develop all that technology in a sound manner, but I don't doubt that some shyster can pretend they did.

Run away!

Sounds like snake oil

Do you really think a no-name company has the time to go through all the the specific ECUs, find spots to piggy back stuff, tune, and sell at the same time? Even Hondata has to go through several months/years of testing and they're only focused on Honda ECUs.

Companies like these sell bs products to lure people in. Be smart about it guys.

Oh lord. Dude, these things are SCAMS. Google it. "slr motorsports scam"

If you want, you can pay me 60 bucks and I'll push your car for a mile. I'm sure that's good for .5 hp increase, and hey, it'll increase your mpg to 100.

Think about it. That slr what ever link you posted said a chip works for Acura TL from years 1995 to 2010. How in the hell can a chip work in all these year models when they are so different. Think my friend. These turbo and supercharger companies will go bankrupt if it was that easy to gain 50 HP and 50 TQ and getting 6 MPG better at same time.

^^ @ucsmfu, Dude.. the only ecu upgrade that has an increase in power and performance and is 'plug and play' is the Hondata!
Dont waste your money on anything else!

Now if you want to do the tuning yourself you can use the AEM fuel and ignition controller.... but thats a whole other ballgame!
