$20 for a resistor? Stay the hell away from it!

It doesn't matter. This is a sure-fire way to fvck up your electrical system. Not to mention that it won't do anything to performance. The ECU constantly monitors voltage and will adjust for things like that. Don't waste your time.

From the auction:
What year and model will this work on?
It will work on ALL models (excluding turbos) from 1990 to present
I don't think that the TL ever had a turbo, and I don't think that it was out in 90 either...at least tailor the little info box to the car you are targeting!!
