Default Throttle Body Bypass Kit

I have came across a Throttle Body Bypass Kit on ebay, and it sounded appealing, but too good to be true. The only reason why I am even giving it a second though is because I have read about something like this being done before and the guy had great results. Also, just from reading the guys ad, the procedure makes sence and seems "doable".

here is a link to the guys auction http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...d=1,1

please let me know if i should even bother with this, or if anyone has ever done it.

thanks

save yourself some $'s and do it yourself, you dont need a special hose or anything like that, and you wont get 8hp, you might if your driving a 5.7 camaro with 320hp before you start but not with a 185hp prelude. go to 92lude.com, he's got pics of it

$15 for a f*cking hose and a brass fitting??!! That is completely retarded and so is the claim of 8 hp. That dude is a liar...just do it yourself for free.
