heres a couple hints about ebay....
NEVER BUY SOMETHING UNLESS THEY SHOW YOU WHAT IT IS YOUR BUYING.
(this would be the point, where... if you were a puppy, i'd hit you on the nose w/ a rolled up newspaper and rub your nose in that website)
while, the "chip" is most likely a reprogrammed pcm for your car, unless you HEAVILY modify your engine/exhaust, your not going to gain 60hp just from that. maybe 5. not to mention, your also going to have to run premium gas.
basically... search for PCM up in the search engine.... and don't buy one off ebay.

If you really want it, just head over to Radio Shack and pick up a 330k 1/2 watt resistor.
A 2 pack is $0.40. Then you won't feel bad when you throw it away because you find out it does nothing

basically, if it don't show the product....don't buy it. All it is...is a resistor that plugs in to your o2 sensor...or somewhere else that's easily accessible that doesn't really do anything.

You'd be lucky to pull an extra 60hp with all the bolt ons, cams, and perfect tuning on an Alero without boost or nitrous.
If it sounds like BS, it's probably BS.

Or...
EBAY performance modulator - 60hp for 20 bucks
GM M45 Supercharger - 50hp for $1,700
Which seems to probably be the one that works and the one that wouldn't?

Only problem I've heard for vista is that a lot of programs don't work on it, such as a music program called FL studios I use haha.
Anyways the point is no the 20 dollar "chip" definetly doesn't work haha

did anyone read through the ad? i wonder if the comments on the bottom are from real people or whatever... i fand it quite disturbing that there are that many moronic people out there... or species as a generality is going to kill itself... we've lost all form of natural selection and are breeding the weak and naturally dumb genes into society... these people vote, these people work amongst us... (usually)... these people make up a vast number of our population... society really is going downhill.. as morbid as it is...

I highly doubt it, or I at least hope to God not.
Although if you do read them many are spelled incorrectly so it kinda makes sense on the moronic part...

Ubuntu for the desktop animations, vista for EVERYTHING else. I dual boot.
Anyways... I am thinking about getting all these performance chips on ebay, adding them all up and installing them and maybe ending up with 1000hp. As soo n as I get the money...

i actually looked through some of the people that "bought" that chip on the listing, and by damned they look to be legit. i can't (well, honestly i CAN) believe people are that dumb to think it works... i went about 20 deep clicking on of them, and it all seemed like they are real people...
