The guy made it a private auction so nobody can warn the bidders they are getting ripped off.

Yeah, I've seen that before. I've noticed that they like to use private auctions and change their eBay usernames a lot so people wont catch on (ie negative feedback). I've also seen one of those guys selling EGR block off plates for 3rd gen Integras. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've never seen any EGR stuff on my car. Stupid scammers.

You are bidding on a timing advance modification kit for all models of Acura Integra from 1994-2001. This do-it-yourself kit takes no knowledge of cars and is extremely easy to install. This modification requires the detailed instructions included as well as a few small pieces not included but available at almost any electronics store. This will tap into your engines computer and tell it that cooler air is entering the car, which results in more horsepower (up to 20 more!) and more torque and better acceleration. This is exactly what those expensive chips do...for a fraction of the cost. This will release the potential of your engine. Remember that car makes must limit power on engines due to legal regulations. This is one of those modifications that takes that legal barrier off and allows your engine to breathe and go faster than before...it is 100% safe for your car, and can be removed anytime (if you are worried about your warranty) without any damage! It's that simple! This is great for stock or modified Integra's, and it will give you that extra boost that you'll feel when you beat that other guy you're racing. This is similar to nascar and formula one racing cars techniques on the track...watch your quarter mile times increase. You don't need any tools to install it and you can do it in your driveway in less than 5 minutes! I did this mod to my car as well, trust me, you can feel the difference when you hit the gas...shipping is $4.00 in the U.S. and I accept PayPal, International Money Orders, and Personal Cheques. There is NO RESERVE! Good luck and happy bidding everyone!
There's the description, anyway...what unmitigated horseshit.

Hahhahahaha ... I love it. This buy is almost as bad as the magazine I have where they advertise this "turbo fan" in the back. +20 or so horsepower I think it claims, seems to be the industry standard for con-artistry.

What I bought that thing !!!


It doesn't give +20 hp ?1
OMG...

$61 dollars to advance you timming.

MMM. I think I got idea...

I think, I might start marketing a product that makes your car 200 lbs lighter without have to install anything and it will increase braking power and acceration. For the starting bid of $2 you can make your lighter and faster without installing anything. Why settle for a CF hood that cost $375+ when my kit can reduces your weight more than any lightweight upgrade.

Sounds cool...

Here's the actually product/installation kit.

1) Remove the all of the interior.
2) Replace all your windows with plexi-glass
3) Remove the AC and power steering.
4) get a smaller gas tank
5) remove all bumper supports.
6) run about 1 gallon of fuel

That should have reduced the weight of your car...
