Post 20hp mod for $20?

I found this so called chip that can give you 15-20 more hp, but lessens the MPG you get. check it out guys, is it a gimmick or what?

Cool

Ummm,you can buy that for $.79 for a pack of 4 at Radio Shack.ALl it is is a little resistor that tricks the computer into thinking the intake air is like 50* or so.This makes the computer advance the timing a little.It's definately NOT 20Hp though!

Pretty funny if you read it too. It says the car will make more power, hence needing more fuel. And more fuel means increased fuel ecomony. Dont think so!
Also it says watch your 1/4 mile times increase. Don't you normally want the to decrease? LOL We are talking rice here. Another excuse why the car isn't making full potential.
