Looks like poo poo to me.

"Vtec crossover at 4,800 and redline at 9,200."

Sounds like vtec is WAY to low for daily driving. And who cares about the redline, you can't hit that safely on a stock B16 anyways.

"This chip also modifies the timing curve to increase horsepower throughout the power band."

The timing curve? Now this sounds wierd.. I didn't think you could mess with the timing on an ecu. I thought the chip is only working with the air/fuel maps, and vtec xover.

I'd stay away from it. Find yourself a stock ecu or a chip you can trust. (Like kenji's).
