Im pretty sure this has been asked before and it was proven to be a good thing.

Should do a search to confirm first though.

it DOES work, until the ECU just learns its way around it, then its useless. it just tricks the car into running richer (or leaner, cant remember)

Exactly. You can get the same ones for 3 cents at tricky dickies. Same power increase cheaper.

It makes an already rich running engine run richer.
