Hey guys. I've seen some crazy products online that people say supposedly ups acceleration, throttle response, torque and hp like no other possible mod .... AND AT INCREDIBLY LOW PRICES~! Are they fake or what? They say that their products are cheap cuz they buy in large quantities, but what do you guys think? Like this is one product that I've actually been thinking about buying online ... give me some advice as to whether I should buy it or not ... it seems good for its VERY CHEAP price which is why im even lookin at it .... http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7994261360&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Its a .10 cent resistor that damages the car. If you want to do that for free, try kicking the side of it a few times, or running it without oil.

OK. Now you're dicking around about my spelling huh? Well I don't think you're in any position to be saying that to me anyways you dick. Look at your second to last post, mofo. Want to shit around about spelling now? Man, I write for a fucking newspaper you dick. I don't have to worry about messing up spelling on a casual forum like this. You have got to be kidding me. I was only asking about whether a product like this is even worth looking at because I was looking for some cheap mods. I'm sorry if I somehow pissed you off by even mentioning it, but you got to do something about your ego man. You're not the smartest guy in the world man. Sorry about whatever I said, but hey, I was just asking about it. Don't throw a fit on me.

Children, children..... Fighting over the internet makes everyone look like a retard. On another note, idk if they have any "chips" for the 6, but why are you looking if you can't even afford a cai. And like someone posted on here, mods are not cheap.

It screws with your air temp sensor so your ECU thinks the air is colder and advances the timing a little. Except that sensor is there for a reason and you might not want to advance the timing on a really hot day.

+1. if youre looking at 10 dollar resistors and say you cant spend much on your car you cant afford even the cheapest em.

The short answer, the best current intake mod for the 6 is the CP-E. Look it up.

I agree.. here's a link to it.. (there's a 6s one too)

I loved my cp-e when it was in.. I have to reorder the damn tubing.

Word of advice. And this goes for EVERYHTHIN, including car upgrades:

If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is!

Think man......

sean,

Have you tried contacting cp-e to see if you can just order the tubing itself? Try explaining your situation, maybe they can pull you a deal or something.

The CP-E intake for the 6s is the ONLY upgrade under 1,000 USD, that gives a +20 ft/lbs gain. The only other upgrade that comes close is replacing the ENTIRE exhaust system, from the headers, y pipe, high flow cat, and catback. Thats a bit over 1k for that.
