This could be the answer to all the the Disco's out there! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2402672274&categor y=6776   Carter Simcoe (Carter) advanced member Username: Carter Post Number: 1773 Registered: 04-2002 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 03:29 pm:    Probablly just a 75 cent resistor from Radio Shack, lord only knows what it would do to your ECU   Doug (Sagger1) New Member Username: Sagger1 Post Number: 10 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 03:40 pm:    I may get it for the improved 1/4 mile times.   Wendell "Reed" Cotton (Reedcotton) New Member Username: Reedcotton Post Number: 2 Registered: 01-2003 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 03:49 pm:    Carter is right. The part is simply a Radio Shack resitor. I fell for it, but to give the guy credit read the description and he tells you exactly what he is sending you. All-in-all, it is cheaper than buying a Tornado fuel saver, and is probably about as practical. Do it yourself.. Look up IAT timing on the web, there are several articles discussing how you can this is done, and if it is practical or not. (Your choice). I am also not sure what the ECU would think about this addition. Could screw the timing right into the detonation range. -Reed   Prescottj (Prescottj) Advanced member Username: Prescottj Post Number: 135 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 04:14 pm:    WOW! in the description is that what got you into buying it Wendall. I can't believe you actually admiteded to buying one.   Mr Smith Unregistered guest Posted on Monday, February 10, 2003 - 05:06 pm:    Just looked this up on E-bay. The seller has got this thing on E-bay in 500 places, just changes name of car that it is supposed to go on. Also 1/3 of his feed backs were people who felt cheated. He probably does all the positive feedbacks himself.

Good One, give the guy credit! -John Cobblers and tinkers are the best ale drinkers.

I was stupid enough to only speed read the listing, bid, then checked his feedback. Great scam! Wish I had thought of it. Whats really embarassing, (Like admitting to being suckered isn't) Is that I probably have a couple dozen of the same resistors in a drawer somewhere. Life is fun!
