they do sell, but its not totally useless, you can find some more hp but not much, just play around with it, i had to tune mine to my current set up cause i only had power in vtec, now i have power from 3k on up

well it depends man, it is a tuning tool really, it wont instantly give you power you have to take the time and adjust and play with it, go on group buy center they should have a gb on skunk i think, but really a cam gear is a cam gear, just personal taste too
