With a difference of ten bucks it probably won't be anything noticeable, probably just a few percent higher afr.

Unless it's a known company I'd be wary of buying an electronic device off ebay.

Buy a Jet module from JEGS or Summit -- I think they would provide a replacement if you had a problem.

I was told this is not just a "resistor" that fools the ECM into "shooting more gas". It has tables in it that advance the ignition and increase the amount of fuel depending on speed (VSS), throttle position, and sensor input (H02S and MAF). If this is correct then it is a true "piggyback". I'm hoping that in the future they learn how to control the VVT and really wake this engine up!

Check out the prices -- I think my stage 1 module directly from Jetchip would have been over $300. JEGS had it listed for $239. $251 shipped.

I called Jetchip to insure I got the right one from JEGS too...lol!

To run a Stage 2 you must have a free flowing exhaust, 180 degree thermostat...but it's cool cuz our cars come with a 180 degree thermostat from the factory and that's pretty much it. With the Stage 2 it's a gain of about 25hp so it says. I was lookin at these at work (Advance Auto Parts) and it was pretty much competitive with the prices ya'll are mentioning and I don't have to pay shipping. But I was also lookin that SuperChips makes a plug-n-play for our cars as well....just have to specify the year and what not. I think that's pretty cool. I'm gonna investigate more into that one.
