watch out for all that ebay crap...while you can get some good stuff there is a lot of garbage floation around...i didnt read the auction but from the price it is probrobbly just a cheapo mod that you stick a resistor in your maf sensor plug, which will in turn probroblly ruin it, all it does is decieve the car into thinking its getting more air then it is and you will burn rich....i suggest searching the site a lot more and reading a lot of the info on here if you really want to add some performance, but i will tell you there is no real cheap performance gains and from even basic bolt ons the gains wont be that large from most parts

your car won't benefit greatly from a "peformance" ecu or chip until you car is seriously modified.

There are tuning companies like Jet Chips ( www.jetchip.com ) that can tune your ECU. Though you have to send it to them. I'd recommend if its a mod you want to do save it until last because they'll ask you if you have any other modifications. Then when you do have a extra ECU to send them, and keep your stock one intact.
