That is garbage. It is a 1 dollar resistor you can get from radio shack. It make the IAT sensor think give a signal to make the PCM think it is cooler so you can run more stock timing advance, but when you get KR you PCM will pull timing anyway so it is worthless.

for future reference, there are no real cheap ways to make horsepower. undoubtably, nitrous is the most "bang for the buck". But sometimes a huge bang will end up costing you huge bucks.

If you really really want to play with your MAF output, get an AFC and a good scan tool. Oh, wait, just get a programmer. Don't add a blind resistor.
