Are the Venom 400s Plug & Play or is there some complicated configurations needed before the noticable hp gain?

It must be, this site... click here... says it can be installed in about "30 minutes in most cases"... I don't know but it sounds good... and not that expensive...

I was wondering do you have to buy any extra mods or the venom is good for 25% alone?

I've been working in sales for over 10 years and learned alot of little tricks companies use to make sales. We call them "catches" The word to look for here is"up to". Venom says up to 25HP gain.

LOL True Enough, I've learned not from being in sales, but from being involved with perofrmance, and ESPECIALLY IMPORT performance stuff that VERY RARELY does something actually produce the amount of improvement that it advertises. Most of the time it's QUITE shy of whatever mark they have said.

Plus, doesnt all this thing do is make your car think your pushing the pedal harder than you are? Does it truely add any HP? I doubt it could add that much, but hell, I hope I'm wrong, I've always wondered about these things...
