I just wanted to show everyone what I found on my X when I popped the hood before buying it. Someone seriously put a chip on an X



Drives like a normal X, not sure if I should remove it or not. I don't think it would be beneficial on ANY vehicle that isn't turbo, and even then I'm not a big believe in them actually doing anything worth while.

However I wonder WHY they done this, makes me feel like it's a booby trap if I go to remove it lol.

Well there were a lot of snake oil sold at one point. Only chip i've ever heard of was an actual reflashing of your ecu from JWT.

google shows its an eBay special http://stores.ebay.com/SI-Automotive-Performance-Lab
likely useless junk.

found install, looks like it tricks the MAF sensor. http://siperformancelab.com/install.pdf i guess just take a pic of where the red wires go to best tell you how to remove it.
