Need your thoughts & opinions on this. Will it affect my warranty? Is it too risky? Any and every thoughts are helpful!

so basically they're saying i would get 50+ mpg since a 20mpg increase in economy on top of the 30ish mpg i get now...why do i not believe that

Always remember, you get what you pay for. You pay $10, you get a POS that won't work at all. My EMS alone was $600, and it only gave me 50whp and made my fuel economy worse.

EDIT: Another thing wrong with the add, the seller has only sold 6 items....seems very shady to me.

Oh I'm not looking into buying this particular chip...even I can smell the B.S. I'm just looking for pointers.

They do not make a chip for the 2.3L 3's.... I've been looking into this for my car as well. My Josh has a contact in Maryland that said if we can gain enough interest they would look into making one, But you would have to get the information from him.

While not a chip, does CPE make a MAFci Intake for the 2.3 3? Me thinks no, but I wonder how terribly different the wiring would be (it isn't plug n play, or at least the one for the 6i wasn't). I know the plumbing under the hood is obviously different. I just remember when I was digging around for my old car, there weren't a ton of options around for the 4cyl.
