Acura chip?
So my dad comes home and says "install this" and places it on my desk

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33597


Is this legit or is my dad a ricer?

LOL

This is one of those resistors that tricks your car into thinking the engine isnt fully warmed up, and to run a little richer. Waste of $$$
