    Been looking into these 'gimmick' and at how people argue that some do work yet others see them as total crap.

    Now i only know of ecotek valves, induction/inlet turbines, edu chips, and the disgraceful 'amplified dump valve' ( we all love hearing a NA engine with one of those )

    Is there any more? and do any of these actually work? do any of you have anything slightly described as a gimmick or what others say is total crap and cause you a little bit of embarrassment? I personally don't have any of these but if something out there does work... i wouldn't mind trying it out.
