That wont be going in my S4 if they paid me. Even though its for normally aspirated.

I mean $85 dollars, and they give you lifetime warranty?

What a load of ball bearings.

I suppose they'll foot the bill to repairs when things go wrong too. lol

These guys really take the mick. An worse of all people acutually buy these thinking they doing their cars good.

IF you gonna get a propper MTM one then fine. They charge quite a few grand, and you still dont get life time warranty. lol.

Also it says it ill create a rich fuel mixture. Which is bad for pretty much all the cars out there if the car doesnt know whats going on.

That should be banned off ebay.

These things will never go away for as long as the likes of
chav/Max power magazine are promoting this crap then people will try and sell it. Those resistor chips are another thing that annoy me. They get sold on the promise of 40% gains on your average 1.2 Fiesta, pah what ever!

it's very handy on trackdays, when this car drives on front
it will clean the track from dust.

Slight problem with the theory, they aren't using a 12v computer fan but a high wattage/hp driven leaf blower, bottle of NOS blown loosly in the right direction makes 3x the difference of the fan. Moral of the story.........dont believe everything you read on ebay.

K&N filter won't get you an extra 15 Bhp, resistors aren't worth £5, dump valves don't make cars go faster, ecotek valves aren't worth £50.
