That is really funny, look at the RPM (x axis) on the graph. I didn't know that 4RUnners go to 7000RPM these days. SO maybe it will give 23HP if you fit a corolla engine.

I think their claims are just marketing, even the graph is not accurate. And I want to see how they get 23HP from just changing ignition advance curves.

Edit: Retrack my statement, this seems to be a big time scam! How can they push the same thing for anything from a 4Runner to Mazda, and it supposedly was tested on a Dyno! They must have a lot of cars to test on and lots of time. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

I have it on my 86 4runner.. I can't even get traction through 1st and 2nd gear...


I am obviously joking... it is junk. If you are thinking of getting one, paypal the $$ to jscarrozzo@comcast.net and I will send you back nothing.
