PCD Performance Chip Stage 1

While surfing around for RDX performance upgrades I ran across PCD Performance Chip Stage 1 from Performance Chips Direct. Claims are up to 4-7 MPG and up to 60 HP gains. Price is $69.99.

Anyone with experience? Thoughts?

Hondata re-flash is the only way to "reflash" your ecu with a tune

Is this one of those "one size fit's all" tuners?

Well i would not buy this item at all, all they did was create a product and plug and play names so they could market it across the board

Thanks for the replies. My gut told me that it wasn't a reliable solution. Anything that leaves a circuit board uncovered and free floating in the engine bay is suspect. And, best I could tell it works by more-or-less "lying" to the ECU.
