Just run away. This is dangerous stuff.
Safe tuning requires a proper flash programmer, delivering calibrations form reputable vendors. SCT preferred.
good luck!

I made the mistake of using something like that on my 89 firebird when I was 17....it added noticeable power but I ended up burning up an exhaust valve not even 6 months later. All it is is a resistor that tricks sensors into thinking they are getting cold air all the time. The proper ones dont trick anything so they are safer.
