I am just worried that it will void my warranty. It say's to connect the chip to the IAT Intake Air Temp Sensor, also called the AIT or MAT Sensor. I bought the item form RPM Performance.

definitely ask the people at the dealership if it will void your warranty in case something does go wrong, they have to prove that the aftermarket part caused the issue, but they could easily do that with something like this
it probably will void the powertrain warranty for sure, but I'm sure you'll have the other warranties in place like tires electronics and all that

You know those chips don't do anything then make your car run pig rich eh? Makes the car think it is sucking in colder air, usually just makes it run rough.

 

[the67beast]

Curious... What gains did they say the chip will provide

 

[blackwatch]

Yeah I agree, makes your car run like a pig.

BEWARE!

Stay away from ebay chips...gimmicks!

Always remember if it sounds to good to be true it usually is. Those plug n play ebay chips that claim 15 to 25hp gains do not work at all. If it was that simple to see such gains you wouldn't see people bothering with the I/H/E setups on their cars.

Hate to say it but toss the chip in the trash man. Not worth risking the damage to your car or voiding the warranty for such a thing. You fell for a gimmick. No worries we all have fallen for something that was false in our life times i am sure. Stay away from the chip man, don't install it.

+1 OP....You bought a resistor in a box. Or sometimes they just send you the resistor...LOL! Its CRAP! Just put it under your tire and run it over.

If up to 100HP and maximum fuel savings were possible for so little money, wouldn't everyone be buying them? You got con'd just like the other guy on the site that the dealer talked into buying a turbonator.

 

[corytate]

better yet, try to return it for at least part of your money. If you have to, say it was going to be a bday gift and the person you were giving it to already bought one...

LOL the Turbonator. I forgot about that thing.

Yeah most of those gimmicks state "money back guaranteed". Now's the time to test them on it. Those chips are just a resistance mod that fools the air intake sensor into believing that there is a lot of cold air coming into the intake so the ECU adjusts to send more fuel but since you don't really have that actually occurring you start running extra fuel less air mixture (pig rich on fuel) and end up running rougher and waste fuel.

Get a CAI if you want some gain.

 

[ForteSX2.4]

Well...you bought it. Might as well put it in and tell us all about it...

 

[SubtleStyle]

Haha. Only one person says use it. I say go for it, maybe you'll like it.

 

[jeff613]

Send it back with a booger on it!

 

[Kia Forplay]

So I've been had for thrity bucks... Oh well. suckers in the trash. Last time I buy crap off Ebay. Just put in my red LED interior lights though, so all in all a good day. wish the damn economy would turn around already so i can really play with my Koup.

 

[corytate]

Send it back with a booger on it!

hahahah

 

[darkfroggy]
