Call me cynical, but anything that only costs $69 can't be much good!

I seriously doubt these have any affect on our cars. The car is very good at fine tuning itself, so something like this is probably no use whatsoever!

Maybe leave it on your car for a week or so, then remove it, and compare your MPG etc? Doubt you'll see much if any difference!

Nvidia doesn't make performance chips for cars.

Remove it. It is garbage and does nothing good for the engine.

Right cause a 400 "chip" is gonna enhance an isf performance. Save for headers or a nitrous kit if you wanna go faster

There's no need to reset it. If you feel you must, pull the fuses. Disconnecting the battery is using a sledgehammer to drive brads.
