Not sure but 15HP on a bike by plugging something in doesn't sound right to me. I may be wrong but it is rare to get 15HP out of any single Mod for a bike. Even most Mods for a car or truck don't deliver that much HP. Especialy for $28.

If I remember correctly, those are only diodes or resistors or something of that nature that fools the ECU into thinking it is reading a different value than it really is, thus causing it to add or take away fuel. It is similar in the way the O2 simulators work. I think....... or I could just be talking out of my arse. lol

im assuming this is the same sort of thing i used for my vn holden.
Yes is does work, but unfortunately price for petrol in australia is quite high so i took it off again.
Basic theory was it tricks ecu into thinking air temp was at zero thus allowing more fuel, not to shure how good it is for motor though.

As I found over on the sled forums I frequent often,

"Hell give me a crayon and I will draw you a dyno graph"

I think this holds true here in that its not real credible, but the good marketing caught your eye didnt it, silly rabbit trix are for kids.
