ok some might work and some is just basic bs.

it might gain you 5 hp to the flywheel but honestly, a properly maintained engine will do just as good.

and as far as synthic oil is concerned, it doesn't always help. for instance the rx-8 where its known to use conventional oil over synthetic.

and most dyno ppl know that runs can be different 1-5 hp one right after the other.

LOL, I was expecting to see a thread along the lines of "upgrade your car with these stickers yO!... 5hp+++"

Some of those are good, but imo it's more important to insulate your air rather than fuel.

relocate your IAT, thats plain BS, its there for a reason, just because you move the sensor to somewhere its a bit cooler doesn't mean the intake air is any cooler than it was before, all it will do is make you run pig rich just like all those flebay miracle chips! and it might inject more fuel but advance the ignition? and insulating fuel lines? from what? it goes straight back to the tank anyway, its not like it sits there for ages constantly going round the block like coolant.
