Do those Performance Modules or Computer Programers work?

Does anyone have one of these or any other ones that are out there? And how do they work for them? Maybe what yours looks like too? I am thinking of getting one if they are worth it.

get a sct x3 and a custom tune. they work great, i love my superchips, but its limited to a preset tune. the sct gets custom tunes by a shop

oh, if your engine is stock, dont expect alot.

Don't cheap out. Buy an SCT programmer with custom tunes. The K&N intakes don't really help with power or fuel mileage.
