I've got a resistor which claims to increase power on my corsa 1.4 sport. just wondering whether there's any risks fitting it and if they really work??????
also, where is the air inlet temperature sensor??? apparently thats where i need to fit it but i dunno where the IAT sensor is!

its a wank resistor which costs about 2p from maplins if bought singly!

They dont really increase power, they just trick the ecu into believing the air getting in is COLD air, when sometimes its not

Waste of time and money even attempting to fit/buy one.

i got drunk last night and now i cant stop shitting...anyone else get this
