please please please do not install that. It will cause your car to run rich (which it already does from the factory) and screw up your engine. Plus it won't add any power.

just accept you wasted $6.99 and move on. Just don't install that stupid resistor

I bought one of these when I owned my honda cuz i figured it would work but I honestly didn't notice a difference. And all it does is fool the ecu, thus not worth it, save up get a piggy back and reprogram, don't just fool it.
