OE is 'Original Equipment' (correct me if i'm wrong)

Any sales pitch that starts with ;YOU WILL FIND MANY SELLERS ON EBAY CLAIMING TO BE ABLE TO SELL YOU AN EXTRA BHP MOD FOR YOUR CAR, THESE PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE A CLUE. ALL THEY WILL SEND YOU IS A 2P RESISTOR STUCK TO A PIECE OF PAPER. THESE PEOPLE ARE JUST OUT TO CON YOU. BE AWARE. must be a load of s**t

Aii as said above that BHP increase thing.....is a 2p resistor. All it does is convince the ECU that the air is more cold then it actually is...I think, or along them lines..

Does more harm then good. For good BHP gains, you pay good money...rule of thumb

Sounds scarily similar to Aberystwyth (where i live) cept its more like 19+ yr old boy racers picking up all the fit girls from my year! Grrr..
Well, the guys with nice cars (i say "nice" i mean anything but a Corsa/fiesta) have nice birds, the guys with s**t corsas n stuff have the 13yr old gfs.

We also have complete dickheads with very bassy sound systems, but cars that look like s**t and are falling apart
