You can buy 100 of them at Radio shack for that. It is just a resistor for the IAT sensor.
Bad investment.

So, what would the value on this resistor be? If you know?HenryJ wrote:You can buy 100 of them at Radio shack for that. It is just a resistor for the IAT sensor.

It is just a gimmick. Your rig will recognize it as such in a day or less.

So, what would be the result of that? Ses light on? Computer able to compensate? According to Brule my 01 pcm has tight parameters anyway.f9k9 wrote:It is just a gimmick. Your rig will recognize it as such in a day or less.

I ran a resistor in my IAT a few times on my Camaro out in AZ. Basically what it does is trick your PCM into thinking it's a perfect air temp coming into the intake whether it is or not so that timing isn't retarded at all. I tested it on my Camaro at the track...two runs without the resistor installed and two runs with...and there was no difference. IMHO...I would let the IAT do what it was designed to do.
