I have confidence in the product. Check out the product reviews on our site too. They all pretty much say they are worth every penny!

I'm running a little calculation here...hmmm....
10000 miles a year at 20mpg (yeah I know...I need to stop the pedal to the metal thing) is about 500 gallons of gas. Paying $0.20 at the pump more for 91 octane... that's an extra $100 in gas a year.

Hmmm
timming box $260
Fuel $100

$360/60000 miles (sell or total a car by 60K)is... This mod costs $0.006 per mile
$100/10000 miles is... This mod costs $0.01 per mile a year.

My daily commute is 40 miles so... $0.64/mile per day... my starbucks dopio expresso is $1.85...hmmm.....

Hmmm...I think I'm sold.

Yup, I also bought the anti sway, strut tower, tc, and sri, for my 09DE a few saturdays ago. (remember me now?)

Just fueled up with 92 and found no difference yet. All the mods were put on at the same time. Raced my wife's car with just an SRI and 55lbs of suitcase in the trunk and now we are even. (she's about 55 lbs lighter than me so my car was only 10lbs heavier with the bars added) I'm thinking the TC still needs to adjust?

Ok. I guess I remember you now. We can talk next time you come down. I would like to drive your car too.

Yes this will totally work on your setup. Really does best on CVT. Figure 5-10% gains gobs of throttle response and improved mileage. Not sure how much but people tell me 5% ish kinda numbers. Piggy does more for mileage than the the timing box but Timing box seems to give a little more response, just barely.
