Sure it is real. What makes you think otherwise?

Here, this one is much better for your truck. At least this one has been actually real world tested and "Lenn" approved.

Hmmm I looked at the Install instuctions.. basicly it just tricks your computer into thinking you have a Cold Air Intake.. but you dont.. It just tells the computer the Air coming in is differnt temperture than what it really is.. So im not sure how well that would work out.. or maybe even cause problems..

Sorry the link in that thread seems to not work anymore but it was the same idea, 2 through wires in-line with eachother and a dial in the middle... there's no way these things can add up to 50 horsies!! wait I gotta go back on there and see if they have any dyno results or say if it's dyno proven...

Haha, correct me if I'm wrong but thier dyno results chart is stolen from another product called an E-ram Supercharger (googled that, it's also wicked cool)... C'mon they didn't catch that?!?!?
