Disclaimer: no, I don't have this mod...
but I have read the thread - and I notice an argument has shifted from this mod is faster... to now it "feels faster."
This is what the OP said:

That statement caused the initial argument because it really hasn't been proven faster. Guys are just pointing out you're unsubstantiated statement. If you want to prove otherwise, it's easy -not a video, just get a Vbox - it's less than $500 for goodness sake. Post the data, it's easy enough to verify the validity and there's a good database to compare results.
But now, if you want to shift to how it makes you "feel," of course nobody can argue with YOUR feel of speed. But many enthusiasts are here to KNOW what will actually improve their car's performance.

This is a nice recommendation... "but general consensus on this forum" that powerchip offers the most gains?? Did I miss the poll? I'm sure it's good flash, but I like to form an opinion based on unbiased comparative data, and last I heard Powerchip failed to meet an ESS all-expense AND lunch paid head-to-head challenge (because they were too busy). Hell they could've sent anybody if Mike was soo busy. Then we could have seen what power was put out and the afr's and see the safety margins per output level. So without that, I hereby chime in that I am not part of your "consensus."
