Question GF Chips...Anyone Used Them???

Saw the advertisement for them on here and checked it out. Sounds like sweet deal for 60 bucks. wondering if anyone has used these and also if you could use it with an edge evolution as well, or if it would be pointless.

All help is apprecaiated

Here is the link to the website http://www.gfchips.com/fordf150.aspx

That is nothing but BULLSH!T!!!! First of all you may get 60hp out of custom tunes but I dout it but there is no way you are gona get 60 hp if any out of that. And as far as 4-7 mpg increase there is no possible way. That is a rip off that is not gona do anything near to what they claim. Don't waste your money on that and buy something that will help your truck like a tank of gas or something.

LOL.. Scam for sure. A good programmer and custom tunes might get you 30hp.. but 60hp no. 7mpg? LOL NO. 1-3mpg with a good programmer and custom tunes.. possible..

It's a $.10 resistor that you wire to the act. It tells the computer thet the air is colder entering the intake.

This is not a Chip.
