by all technicalities, its supposed to tell your car that the air being sucked in is very cold (i dont remember the exact temp they bragged) and in doing so, the now fooled ECU is supposed to put out more gas. I bought one, and yeah, only spent like 5 bucks for it just to see if it would do anything whatsoever... yeah, i found that it does nothing... and when i thought i was going faster, honestly, it was all in my mind...

Hardly. 4 dollars of nitrous wont do shit, without the 700 dollars worth of Nitrous equipment.

That 4 dollar chip will do amazing things when combined with a $1200 turbo kit...

Are you fucking kidding me??

Yes. in fact buy 20 and hook them all up in series so the ecu will think that your intake temp is -600F. Colder than an arctic winter.
