They're just a resistor in a pretty box with VAG wires coming out of it. It fools the ECU about the fuel temperature, so the ECU injects more fuel into the engine.

You can have the same effect for about Â£2 and a trip to Maplin.

I'll have a hunt round before paying out the cash for a pre-made resisor-in-a-box.

Thanks
