Default Whats your opinion on RS4 Performance chips?
Ive got a 07 f150 4x4 with a 4.6 V8 and I want to put a RS4 Performance Chip on it but I dont know if its worth it? Do they really do all that they say?

Just googled it. The outrageous power and mileage claims are a dead givaway that it's a paperweight in disguise. HP does not come cheap or easily, and it never comes with better mileage.

Lol, definitely don't buy it... You'd be better off buying a 25 cent resistor off of eBay that's built specifically for the F150!

You mean I won't get 100 extra HP and 35 miles to the gallon?
