    On a serious note, does advancing your timing realy help performance? And how is it done?

    I believe you can get a bit out of it, I read it on a sentra board how to do it, but I forgot.

    This guy is just selling 10cent resistors...haha

    He probably made some good coin from everyone... if 180 people paid $1.99 that's $358.20!!! Good scam!

    The chumps that did buy it probably would believe they are getting 20hp more. Doubt any of them got a dyno for a $0.99 upgrade. Good old placebo effect, if you believe it works then it certainly must.

    IMO that guy is pretty smart, if he makes a few hundred bucks a month with an hour or two of his time, then hey, he has done well. Alot of gullable people out there...

    The point is, he doesn't sell them for 1.99...it starts there...right now its at 36US...anyways whatever....he is my new hero. I'm gonna start selling transistors that will improve horsepower by 20-25%
