After reading some of the negative feedback, I would hold off on this one. It appears they are selling you a ten cent resistor to bypass a signal from one of the sensors. Doing this can cause you FJ to run too lean. Sure you might get a performance boost, but at the risk of ruining your engine. Here is what some of their customers say:
It didn't fit a 90 Jeep Wr., All it does is bypass a sensor, very misleading
this item was not as described, it was a 10 cent resistor not a "chip"
Did not work,ran rough (worthless )
you get what you pay for!!bought same thing for .90, never answered any e-mails!
sucks
I would suggest to stay away from this mod until we get more info on this one!

We need to get in touch with one of their customers and see if they will fax one of us the instructions so we can see what they are doing. I talked to our shop foreman this morning and he said more than likely it tricks the computer into thinking the engine is already running too lean and it richens up the mixture to compensate for the supposed lean condition.

Great job on the investigation.
I don't want to burn more gas and risk my engine.
I tried to cancel my order.
We will see if they let me out of my bid or not.
I wonder if this is what it looks like? (not the actual pic from the aution, my lame photoshop attempt at a joke)
