Ok, its for a Ford - but!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TUNING-CHIP-Ford-Escort-Sierra-Mondeo-Mustang-Puma-Ka-Petrol-Diesel-Engine-box-/141173381736?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AMondeo%7CPlat_Gen%3AMK+IV&hash=item20de96da68

How could this actually work? Any chip will require a power supply to operate, so that's 2 wires leaving no wires left for the magic to come from .......

It'll be a resistor. Probably in the coolant temp sensor, causing artificial overfuelling. Obviously, only short term increase on cars with lamda control.

Will be wired into the maf to give lower air temp,its a con,better putting in shell v power instead lol.....

Aye, that has same effect. Until the ECU learns its overfuelling, and trims it all back.
