How true is this Vortex Generator Pep

[s5397]

I just came across this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7970505936&category=42604 and wanted to know if this thing really gives in more horsepower and more mileage, and if it can cause any damage by installing it. If anyone has tried it please let me know it. :feedback

thanks what about the K&N Filter is it worth it and the chips on ebay. I had the impression that the vortex was so simple since it was just metal.

the chips on ebay are really bad too. All cone filters will give you HP, the maf adapters are only made by KKM right now and are not cheap but i am trying to get a deal going here.

the LS chips

all those chips on ebay r just 10cent resistors that make your car think that it is having cooler air mixed with the fuel to up the hp with our LS's they automatically reprogram themselves to adjust to the difference and some guys have said it makes the check engine light come on.

thanks for warning me, now I am definately sure I will not buy those things hell no, I don't wan't to see that check engine light atleast not on this lincoln, I've had it before in another car and don't want to deal with it. Thanks
