Chipping my honda fit
#43
Like I posted earlier, you can go to Radio Shack and buy an inexpensive potentiometer and wire it into the 5.1 volt wire from the AIT sensor to add the amount of resistance you desire to to increase the volume of fuel to air ratio and increase your ignition timing... Simple modifications like this get a bad rap because of scam artist... You can pick up 30 potentiometers for about the price of a JDM oil cap.... Do you really want me to send you $2.75?

Wish in one hand and sh1t in the other and let me know which fills up quicker.

They are being misleading by calling it a chip when in reality it's a resister that adds a small amount of resistance to the signal from the IAT sensor too the ECU in the same way cold air does.. Because cold air has a denser concentration of oxygen the ECU adjust the air/fuel mixture by supplying slightly more fuel to prevent misfiring.... Adding a resistor to the 5volt wire from the ECU is a way that you can compensate for the change in the air/fuel ratio change to a more lean mixture when using a free flowing after market intake and exhaust and helps make up for the lack of low end power loss that is common occurrence when doing these two mods not just by adding fuel but also providing more ignition timing advance. It would take a lot of resistance to turn on the CEL. A spark plug reading and scan gauge will provide the necessary data to support what I've said.
