How legit is this? Or 100% scam?

Postby 89powerram » Thu Dec 16, 2010 8:18 am

I came across this:

http://www.gforcechips.com/dodgeram50.aspx

Now obviously those numbers are bogus... but 100% bogus or would it actually improve performace by a few HP and maybe 1 or 2 MPG?

Thanks

I wouldnt waste my money on things like that. I bought that tornado thing you stick in your intake and didn't see any improvement. After that I figured waste my money on building the horsepower instead of saving gas. IMO.

well if its the "turbo / vorteck make the air spin thing" I think it is, then it's a joke. But if you think about what is going on you will come to the conclusion it won't work or do anyhting. The idea is spinning air does somthing???????? No idea what it might be. It would be a good idea if the intake was a straight line for one, there was no valve and stem it had to flow around, there was no carberator throttle plate, and the engine was a Dyson Vacume then yes it might work. This thing has come and gone over the last 20 years I know of. The only way to improve HP or milage is to improve the volume metric efficiency of the engine it's self. If you want to make somthing try and desine and build a vaporising carberator system. That is where you would boil the fuel and run a pure vapor into the engine. Fuel efficiency is encreased by atomizing the fuel to as small of a drop as you can. This is why we now use FI on everything. The dropplettes are very smal. The smaller the more power you can get out of the same amount of fuel. Now if you can get fuel into a pure vapor state then it is the most powerfull you can get. Gas does not burn, the vapor does. The video showes just how powerfull fuel vapor can be.

chips only work if your truck/car has a electronic speed governor that you need gone...

Oh well now the link is working.. Chips do work if you are fuel injection. But carberated it has no place to go.

But if you just want to go fast, buy this..
