dont waste you money read the installation instuctions they are ebay chips plain and simple all they do is play with the maf and cause problems i bought one for my first car it didnt do anything but cause the check engine light to come on

look at programmers-sct,superchip,diablosport,ect

performance isnt cheap if the directions tell you to cut maf wires and splice it in its a ebaychip

My roommate got one and he paid me $100 to install it. I told him it was junk and he insisted I install it or he'll pay a professional benz dealer i told him they would fall on their A$$'s laughing and tell him to get lost. long story short i wired it to the MAF and it instantly sent a CEL. this was on a 1999 Mercedes Benz ML430 4Matic. Get something real not this
