does this really work????

Ok, i was browsing through Ebay and came across this timing advance kit?, granted I dont know what the hell it is, but it says it is supposed to add 15-20 hp. and it doesn't harm your vehicle.

here is the more horsepower?

any feedback would be greatly appreciated. thank s

thats what im thiking, its just timing advancing, you can rotate your distributor and get the same effect, cause you can only advance it so far.

go to http://jdmfan.com/technical/performance/advancedtiming/ and read the article about advancing the timing..... it may work but i do NOT believe that it will give you a 15-20HP gain.

Umm. I usually like to decrease my 1/4 mile times......

what do you guys think a jet chip does? it just advances your timing. it should add hp. 10-15hp means 2-8whp
