IIRC, this is just a resistor that sits inline with the mass airflow sensor and tricks the ecm into supplying the wrong amount of fuel.

It should be noted that contrary to their claims, this does void your engine warranty. Its easy to hide, but nonetheless does. The fact that they lie like that makes me dubious. The fact that they have a 1000% markup on the part also makes me dubious.

I remember when I still had my Cummins, we bought one of these just to see what it was. Nothing more than 2 wires running into a box full of silicon lol.
