Do a search, there have been many fools who bought it. I have three or four links to the reviews of this farce.

Most not only find NO power gains, but a loss in fuel economy and a nice little check engine light that comes on with installation.

I can't believe the govt. ain't shut them down yet.

Just looked into it and found all they do is trick the computer into thinking it's cold so it runs richer, giving you the added power if any. Local shop I know told me a way to do it one time but forgot how, looks like someone marketed it now. Hahaha!!!

Haha no search power wire or better yet check the faqs and there is an awesome writeup how to make your own for pennies. Search also on the site for g force chips. You'll see how many people have kicked themselves for buying a $1 diode for $70.

Power wire fools the PCM into thinking it's 15* cooler, 180* thermostat IS 15* cooler.

Just remember, whether is actually is cooler or the PCM thinks it's cooler, means the PCM dumps more fuel. More fuel = more power, but it means you burn more fuel. Can't have it both ways...
