"free firmware upgrades for life" ROFL
"Increases efficiency by 18% on average"
this means that if you get 35mpg, it claims to increase your gas mileage to 41.3 mpg. It's BS

yea, it's fake alright

weird, that's the first "chip" that I've heard of that gets spliced into the OBDII readout port. I'd be interested to see what it "does."
