Thats is not an alternative to Hondata or any other decent Engine management - full stop! Theres no comparison at all.

[eeKayFouR]

is not an alternative to hondata.. refund it !

[ECU-MAN]

those things are a waist of money.

its just a resistor in a box

the resistor cost 20c on it own

[Bulbasaur]

there useless lol

[SiReal]

lol. you're young and gullable aren't you.

[Timmy_B]

never settle for cheap shit.

[TeggyWHUT]

Dam, i got conned pretty hard haha

[Lukey]

lolol

[Raztaz]

olol wow you bought one of those things...
At least you have a fancy paper weight?

[muzukashi]

if +35hp was as easy as a $25 buy then everyone would be driving 500hp cars:wave:

[Bulbasaur]

i think he paid 25 dollars in usd ;D

[Tai]

Noob fail

[RiceMeister]

wow.

hahahaha fail.

[bennet654]

Dw bro... Simple mistake.. Fuk the refund, not worth it... Just go by some good rubber :) and save for hondata, but make sure u have done some serious mods before u install the chip.. saves wasting money & time at the dyno/mechanics for constant retuning.

[GSi_PSi]

lol doesnt the chip make the car think its cold or somethinng?

[patsdc2]

Companies spent millions of dollars on product R&D... which is why products like Hondata, VAFA, emanage, unichip, motec or even other products which doesn't seem difficult to produce/replicate cost that much. Usually that money which you paid would almost guarantee it will work the way it has been advertised. For the amount you paid for that chip, you should only expect the amount you paid or less - if however you did get something more that what you expected, then consider yourself lucky.

[Zinyo]

wow dude, you should've asked the guys on ozhonda first...dont worry about the refund if its only $25. These scammers wont giv u back your money anyway. Judging form that picture though, that chip looks like a HID kit...i dont believe it will give that much power boost from the moment i saw it.

[jrstyles]

This sticker i bought from ebay i sh*t you not gave me at least 30hp if not more. its one of those universal ones that work on everything, you stick it on your brakes and they work better, on your exhaust and it sounds better, the whole package. But back on topic, dont bother getting it refunded $25 is equivalent to 2 boxes of migoreng so just dont eat for a week!

[jrstyles]

p.s i am not sober, apologies if i offended

[Euro08Jaz]

You should still be able to get a refund, I cant believe how much positive feedback this shit gets on ebay!

[TeggyWHUT]

Wow i failed miserably! is there any other cheap ways to make my DC5R faster?

[DC4Integra98]

lol this is either epic fail or a troll

[euromandeluxe]

Wow i failed miserably! is there any other cheap ways to make my DC5R faster?


No. :D

[[stealth]]

wtf were u thikning... happy high herbs consumed prior??

[flipfire]

Should have done some research prior to buying anything for the engine.

Those mod chips is just a resistor that adjusts the timing.

[TeggyWHUT]

Oo dam i shouldve research to begin with, ahh oh well money wasted! learning from your mistakes lol!

[DC4Integra98]

Take it out if you haven't done so already, else your simply pinging your engine.

[JohnO]

25usd in stickers next time to get some decent gains.

there aint no cheap way to get power it'll cost you an arm and possibly your leg. if you got money to buy a dc5r why not put out some money for parts?

[TODA AU]

There's all kinds of snake oils out there...

[Stig]

dehydrated water, that was lol

there is no cheap way of making a car go faster, everything cost money, so i suggest you start saving

[chauster]

Cheapest I can think of is to buy a Pod filter from super cheap. Remove the top of the air box and shove it in with a plumb pipe from bunnings.

cost you about 30$ and you will hear it. Feel might be a little better. Lol

[migoreng]

go jogging for an hour every day or something..weight reduction ftw...

[Super-DA9]

Yeah bummer dude, sorry to hear you got scammed. could've been worse however, they could've sent you a rotting carcass of a rabbit or something. lol

In terms of getting power for little money, it's not something I'd ever trust. And buying stuff off ebay is good when you know what you're buying but there are SO many scams on there. Like those stupid little fans that sit inside your intake pipe and hook up to the battery and cost about $10. They call them "Turbo Superchargers" or some sh*t, anyway they can't spin fast enough (obviously) so they prevent air from flowing and reduce power hahaha.

Should save up for some good Intake/Headers/Exhaust If you haven't got 'em already. :)

[MWAKU]

its funny how some people really fall for this,

my mate at work was telling me how he wants more power out of his holden and saw one of the chips for 70 or something, and his like, well this one looks promising as its more expensive and looks like it has results this that and he was pretty intent on buying it until i told him otherwise

but yeh as people have said its just a small resistor, tricks the car thinking its cold, and just floods fuel in
