Do those eBay resistors actually work? I've heard some day yes and some so no

Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope.

Think about it, if you could add 25hp and 5mpg by putting in a resistor, dont you think ford would have done it?

The only way a resistor can help hp is on a diesel, if you had a 7.3 you can even make it lope from a resistor. But on a triton it does absolutely nothing.

You will NOT be assimilated. Nor will you be happy with that purchase. GOTTS Mod, exhaust, and maybe a programmer will do the trick.
