i dont fall for ebay ones, but id probably fell for that

It's a fucking resistor to wire to the intake air temperature sensor. Because everyone knows pretending the air is colder than it is makes it so.

[Nate's Alero]

complete fail

[AleroDrime]

why cant someone make an actual chip, like the DIABLO Predator for my pops 250, its a monster upgrade

[[ion] C2]

Yeah, okay.

Yeah smart ass I did use the search button, and this is different than anything that came up when I searched.
Contribute something worthwhile or sod off plz.

[[ion] C2]

He asks if you used the search because these performance chip topics have been beaten to death, and you come back with a jerkoff remark.

Not his fault you didn't use the right keywords.

[C_EICK]

ignore this.

Used all the right search words definately, and found plenty of posts about performance chips, but none that covered this specific item.
As far as jerkoff remarks go...well I just wanted to fit in.

Not that it matters since I found plenty of other useful comments in this thread.

Maybe I should start selling these things.

I mean with people searching them and still buying them and spending all this cash on them, it might be worth looking into doing it.

Now it's back to the HP increase, last year it was MPG increase

I was reading about the item. It's funny how it says that each one is tuned for each vechile and it's not interchangable, but yet the part number is the same for a Ferrari F 430 and the Alero

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

me I refuse to look at any of those so called chips for our cars I've read the forum enough to know they are a joke and I know HP Tuners is the only way to go with our cars it would be nice if Super Chips or Hypertech would or could make a plug and play like they have for so many other vehicles.

feel free to elaborate....

[Redog]

^^ x2

I paid more attention to your post, what's a 250?

Could be

F-250
E-250
250 Ninja Motorcycle
250 cc Scooter
the area code for Vancouver Island and interior British Columbia

[AleroDrime]

programmer on a ford 250 diesel, i think its the 6.2 of the top of my head

[Redog]

It that the SuperDuty or the King Ranch?

Either way :biggrin:

Facepalm:lol:

[AleroDrime]

both its the king ranch edition but still has the super duty set up, full cab, 6.5 foot bed, im driving it to prom Saturday and am smokin out the senior parking

the programmer right now is set for 60 HP, safe to run while doing anyting street

can be set to 100, but can only tow if the intake and exhuasut have been done, pop is going to do them eventually

also has towing mod, great for hauling the 5th wheel, really wakes up that monsters torque

king ranch green with mossy oak window visors and hood visor, sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sexy, must be careful not to nut while driving lol

[[ion] C2]

Yeah. It's because it's a turbo diesel. It electronically ups the boost. It's for people who have absolutely no idea what they're doing and want to buy a magic chip to make their vehicle faster. http://www.xceedspeed.com/forums/images/smilies/dunno.gif

great idea, smoke up the senior parking lot. what an awesome idea. people like you should be rounded up, and shot in the head.

Well, you just said "I'm a redneck" :ninja:

[Bad99Olds]

Well, you just said "I'm a redneck" :ninja:

that was inferred.

[PappaSmurf]

that was inferred.

Yeah when he said, "king ranch green, camo window tint, didnt say anything about the performance or anything. yet it sssssssssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooo sexy. I bet his girl is going to wear her cowboy boots and prom dress with her cowgirl hat and a dip in her mouth. YYYEEEEEEHHHAAAWWWWW!:lol:
-Smurf-

[Redog]

IDK his girl is pretty cute, I can't see her being a redneck princess.

Of course I've only seen pics. I could be wrong

[PappaSmurf]

Yeah I have seen the pics too. And he didn't strike me as the redneck from podunk, NC. He struck me as the racer type kid that hooks up his car with everything he can.
-Smurf-

[AleroDrime]

i dunno i think im a mix, but im no ricer, lol she aint no redneck princess, and the window is isnt camo tint, my ford had that, front strip and back, pluss two toned with mossy oak but whatever

i beleive cars should be lowered and go fast and trucks should be lifted and fly trough mud,

have nothing against a 2wd truck being slamed, with tasted

but i vomitted in my mouth the other day when i saw a z71 offroad and a zr2 parked infront of ace hardware, both slammed, that is just wrong

but my younger brother is definently a redneck

btw, beaufort might aswell be the boondocks in most cases, but the redneck profile doesnt match me

[AleroDrime]

theres gonna be some midnight fun at the airport strips afterwards from prom, all legit though, a kid who works there got permission from the owner, he'd rather us do it there then on the street, i may go home about 4 or so and come back with the alero, or just head to the party

[Redog]

Great idea.

Get drunk and drag race :rolleyes2:

Legal or not, that's just stupid

[AleroDrime]

wrong order

[PappaSmurf]

ok...
That's just stupid, legal or not.
Better? LMAO
-Smurf-

[AleroDrime]

im not racing drunk is what i meant...

heres a link to some of the rides we have here to the house

also my car domain has the alero

[PappaSmurf]

Yet you are still racing, and not at a track! That is ILLEGAL! I dont give a hootie or his blow fish what hte owner said, let the cops catch you and it's a whole different story.
-Smurf-

[AleroDrime]

atleast its in a semi controlled environment and not on the street

[coolgrinder33]

sounds cool

It's NOT illegal. Police can NOT ticket you for drag racing if it's on private property on a "closed course". And plenty of private airports hold the occassional drag meet, mostly for older "Old Time Drag & Rod Run" type stuff.

True it's better to run at a fully set-up dragstrip than a make-shift one, but this is better than the kids racing down one of the main throughfares outside of town where pedestrians and other drivers could get injured.

[AleroDrime]

thankyou daytona
