Hi, There are some performance kits advertised that improve power output as well as torque. Apparently work icw the ECU to retard timing and improve air:fuel ratio thus increased performance.
Anyone tried this type of kit which apparently is just a resistor that changes the voltage into the ECU?
Does it actually work and what sort of power gain could one expect?
Regards, Tom
*ADVANCE* the timing, not retard it. *RICHEN* the fuel-air ratio, not "improve" it.
It works great if the power you want to increase is the power of DaimlerChrysler to say "Too bad about your flunked emission test/destroyed catalytic converter/blown engine -- your fault for putting in that resistor."
