Tricking you engine into thinking anything doesn't usually work out well.

Hell no
I think I'm right in saying those have been proven to reduce power.

Sorry if i didnt give you a good reply, but I wouldnt trust one of them and tbh I wouldnt think they work at all, its just like one of them 'electric superchargers' on ebay.

Well, a stupid question like "will a £2 piece of shit give me a power increase" could only warrant a stupid answer.

technically if it advances the timing it will increase bhp, BUT does it or does it just say it does. it doesn't say by how much it advances the timing so you will need to run on high ron fuel and it will probably blow the engine anyway.
