Still came across as rude 'mate'

Just giving you some advice. lol

Shayne, you need to do to reflash. Then you have indicated in the beginning of the topic, does not work. There is no gain. Besides, it will light ses.

Sorry mate, what is reflash? and what is ses?

From what I hear all they do is trick your ECU into thinking your engines running cold. Using more fuel. They are a waste of time man. No better way to put it

SES- service engine soon. the error. Check engine.

When stayer says ses I think he means CEL (Check Engine Light).


Forgive his English, he's Russian, and his English is 10000% better than my Russian!

Reflash? In Victoria have at least 1 member from whom you can test it. In the near future I will give information to all members of the AMC. But frankly, it is not cheap. A unique product.

I wasn't so much concerned with better performance, just better fuel economy......
I'm probably older than most of you guys, and have done my "boy racing" a long time ago....)

Cheers and thanks...

The reflash will give fuel economy approximately 2 litres per 100km.

You've got to be suspicious of a seller who lists a wide range of Mitsubishi, Holden & Ford vehicles and claims the module gives every make & model exactly the same '30+ HP and save fuel' improvement ... Caveat Emptor

lol Gotta laugh . . . .
(1) No technical backup, it is more a situation where the seller says "Trust me, it works". I'd be more interested if he could produce some before/after dyno sheets from a reputable engine shop, and then I'd be contacting the engine shop to verify the dyno sheets.
(2) Every car maker would love extra HP with increased fuel economy, they spend a lot of R&D dollars on that. So why is this seller flogging this on ebay, rather than direct to the car makers?

Not a "buyer beware" situation, more like you knowing the difference between reality and wishful thinking. lol

TL;DR
It DOESN'T work!
