Is this complete BS or what?
 
Nissan 370Z Performance Chip - Always in Stock!

Don't even know how I stumbled onto this website but it seems to be complete BS.

I know you can "chip" a car and I got something like 30hp out of it on my Audi A4 but only because it was a Turbo engine and the ECU swap kicked up the boost. These guys are claiming 50+hp & 50+tq from a naturally aspirated car for $70 and everything seems like BS from the testimonials on down.

Just want to bring light to this so someone doesn't get scammed and to see if anyone has seen this before or even tried it?

m4a1mustang 07-10-2010 05:54 PM

Yeah it's just a scam. :)

KingZee 07-10-2010 05:57 PM

People are such scumbags man, I can just imagine some poor 16 y/o kid spending his hard earned dollars on this all excited.

Darwin, bro. No one should lack the common sense to realize that if it sounds too good to be true, it is. :tup:

But yeah, I agree. You have to be a douche to sell this stuff to people.

That wasn't a knock at you man.

Scamming people out of their money VIA useless products have been around since the invention of a trade system. Nothing we can do but look out for each other ... until they legalize murder anyway.

Theres a sucker born every minute

In a completely unrelated note, I've spent years perfecting and have finally finished my new auto spray paint. You see, you just spray your car with my spraypaint, and it reduces drag by 30%, making you a second faster int he quarter mile. Only $50 a can. I have testimonials!
Whose first?!?!

Do I have to spray the whole car or only parts I want faster? :ugh2:

I just sprayed my tires. Haven't had problems hooking up since

This is like putting a TypeR emblem. As long as you feel like you're going fast... :p

I know man, I didn't mean it was, just shaking my head at scumbags.

I don't really agree with or believe in ripping people off just because you can but that's besides the point.

Wherever there is drag, so mostly the front. I sell a different spray paint for the back that creates down-force

Can I use the same paint for all my cars or do I have to buy a different ones?

nogoodname 07-10-2010 06:38 PM

I tired one of those Performance Chips on my R/C car and it worked with good results so I don't see why it would be different for a car.

Does it come in red? I could sure use some racing stripes...that will surely bring my 0-60 time down to the low 4's. :ugh2:

wilsonp 07-11-2010 01:00 PM

Can it also be used on the windshield instead of Rain-X?

Trips 07-11-2010 04:05 PM

Thanks for posting the Scam KingZee. :tiphat:

Lemers 07-11-2010 04:13 PM

Do they make a chip for the Miata?

Don't know anything about the linked chip, but it's not impossible to improve the HP and mileage with a different chip. Not saying 50 hp or 6 mpg more but you may see some gains.

These chips may effect your warranty too though so be careful.

billydsz 07-12-2010 03:31 PM

Here's a real chip claims 6 hp and 10 ft-lbs for the 370z

Performance Gains - Hypertech

The SLR chip is a scam for sure after reading around.

They got 303 whp out of a stock 370z? Sounds legit!

Gotta go with reduced fat. The Olestra in them improves your hp AND handling.

Wow...was checking out that website and they are dyno-ing a Camaro and a Corvette that is AWD. I didn't know the Camaro and Corvette comes in AWD.

The site is probably managed by a 16 y.o.

Frost,
Will your special paint make my car doors more solid sounding when I close them, so I can have Miata doors...?

KB you got it all wrong man, speed is not what you want for that area man! Now if he makes a spray that increases volume and duration between fill ups.

Jeffblue 07-13-2010 04:33 PM

If your paint starts to chip, spray on Rogain, it will grow back. i swear

No, but let's just say that I don't it's "clearcoat safe"..

frost 07-13-2010 06:37 PM

George Steinbrenner sprayed my paint on his chest ... sped up his heart till it popped. Remember guys, my HP adding spray paint is for automotive use only. Keep it away from your chest, penis, anus, face, etc.

fairladyZ34 07-13-2010 06:50 PM

Strangler 07-13-2010 09:05 PM

Even though the chip doesnt give HP or TQ as claimed, it HAS to do something... Otherwise, why would anyone buy it at all? Speaking of chips, Im hungry now..
