has anyone tried the fake turbo or the resistor that makes the computer
sense the engine is under a load.  Do thease things work?

They work great...at reducing power, fuel efficiency, and
engine longevity, though they might help accelleration a
small amount due to your wallet being lighter.

Basically yes, except that the electric turbo and the
resistor for the ECM air intake temperature both cost
a lot more. The resistor runs less than a penny in bulk,
which is how these scammers are buying them.

Fieros are like potato chips, you can't stop at just one...
