GForce Performance Chip for BMW E46 330 ZHP

[04ZHP_PDX]

Hey guys,

Has anyone ever heard of these chips? The gains seem impressive, especially for $70...but I'm a firm believer in "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." Thoughts? Anyone using the chip?

And for $70 my BS alert flashes red. Don't know anything about these, but $70 sounds ridiculously cheap.

Definitely BS.

BS Meter going off as well big time.

I didn't even look at link, but this is prolly along the lines of Sprint Booster, no?

Ok. Good to hear. I thought the same thing. Thanks for the feedback.

No. Perhaps a link reading is in order. lol


The only way you're going to get anywhere near 60hp in gains is forced induction or thousands of dollars in engine work. This is a massively BS claim.

Not worth it, It is similar to the same "Performance" boxes that state they reprogram the ecu but simply plug into the maf/map sensors. all they do is cut back the voltage using resistors/potentiometers to the ecu adding timing and bringing the air fuel from rich to a bit leaner.

In this case since the BMW DME is using the Inlet Air Temperature sensor in it's fuel/timing calculations they are able to adjust the signal tot he DME. crappy way of tuning if that's what you call it.
