I knew a guy who sold clear screens to go in front of a black and white TV to turn them into a color TV for $25.

I asked him: "That's an amazing invention.... why do you sell them so cheap?"

His reply:

"Because they don't work.":laugh:

The aftermarket chips basically reprogram your engine's ECU (electronic control module) and can improve performance if the bike is designed to run lean for smog control. Hence, they are illegal in some states but who is going to check? I don't know how much extra punch you can expect because bike makers are pretty slick at squeezing all the power they can out of the engines.

I think you're right because the picture shows it only has two leads and they say it replaces the IAT sensor which is the intake air temp sensor.

I thought this was one of those aftermerket ROM chips that actually reprogram the engine's FI profile and timing advance curve for the engine. But, if it only has two wires, it can't be anything but a resistor.
