Hmmm idk. I'm kinda of agreeing with evoic here. When a seller has those kinds of number im tending to think that its not such a load of crap. I could be wrong though.
Anyone done it that can testify?

Do I believe that claims, myself? Not so much.......
Do I have ANY evidence to the contrary? Not so much.....
I owned BMW's before I got my Audi and it was a few grand to get chipped, with a gain of about 7hp.
When I got this car and heard claims of 50HP / 80TQ gains with a chip for $500-$600, I thought......BULL$H*T.
And then I researched and found out that tons of people have done it with no issues and based on their feedback, I took the plunge.
Couldn't. Be. Happier.
So.....unless someone has used THE JUICE BOX product, or unless someone can find hard evidence showing that it's useless - the mountain of feedback says it works.
How it works? I have no clue.
Is it safe? Again, no information or evidence here.
Are people pleased with their purchase? Seems that way.
p.s. WHY WAS THIS MOVED? We discuss GIAC, REVO, APR, NeuSpeed, etc. all day long in the forum where this was posted.
What's any different about, "The juice box" other than personal bias?

Its taking a bite from Edge Racing i think calling it "the juice box," i think they have something called the juice for diesels. oh well lame names aside, if he has positive feedback obviously its not all wrong, but i doubt you can expect huge gains from a 30 dollar item.

I dont know man... It's pretty old news that all they use is a resistor or some kind of diode that is either spliced into the ects or the maf to trick the ecu into running a little more rich, which can give you a little more ooomph-but its not good for your engine to run like that all the time. It just tricks your ecu into thinking it is not up to normal operating temps by restricting the signal the ects or maf puts out which =running rich. This is not good to do when the enigine is actually at normal op. temp. Not good for your cat especially. While it may add a little power, it's a scam because it's adding power in the wrong way and the way they advertise how it works is technicaly untrue. Its the same type of scam and advertising tactics as ***** enlargement pills. Of course they are proven not to work by actual doctors, yet the companies have such a high customer satisfaction rating. Plus, I have seen such "modules" in person, and you know its a scam when the label that is on the module with the product name is printed out on a bubble ink jet printer and rubber cemented on. Im sure they spent more time designing their advertisement on that website with all the fancy colors and fonts than the actual time they put into the R&D and assembly of this product.

When people give advice, it should be from a source......period.
You experienced it yourself.
Your FRIEND experienced it.
You worked with a guy who's wife got one and SHE said it was a dud.
You should NOT be offering advice and telling people what they should or should not do based on assumptions.
Why is your opinion more valid than any of the 5,000+ people that posted comments??
At least THEY have experience with the item.
What do you have?
Nada. Zip. Zilch. Nothing.
That's what.
If you can't speak from experience or at least pass along information from someone that CAN speak from experience, then you should stop offering ADVICE.
