 Subject: IAT mod or chip

Message:
I've been reading on ebay about this chip that is supposed to be an alternative to relocating the IAT sensor. I plan on moving the IAT, but if this chip puts out the same temp all the time wouldn't it be better. Thanks in advance for your help.

The link to this chip on ebay is

These chips are a dime a dozen, and I think the horsepower gains are a little exagerated, but if it works why not???

Another scam artist in the works,
He must have a resistor in that box, you would be
farther ahead to relocate you IAT.
The only draw back to a relocation is if you live
in a cold area and it drops below 50 degree's
you have a good chance of triping your check
engine light for IAT voltage to high.
What I did was wire a second IAT in and located
it where the origanal air intake tube was so I
could switch between them on the fly from in the
cab, that way I avoid the light when it drops
below 50 here in northern wisconsin.
You could also build your own IAT adjuster with
about $10 worth of parts from radio shack.
50k ohm pot and a 1k resistor and you could tell
your computer the air is anywhere from 20 to 180
oh ya and a DPDT switch to turn it on and off
If you decide to build 1 let me know and I could
list the table of what resistance is for the dif
temp readings so you could calibrate the adjuster
