Hi all,

Spotted these on Ebay and just wondered if anyone has fiited one or had any experience with these. Do they really increase BHP?

i think these are crap and plug in to the lambda probe somewhere and fool it into thinking its under fueling so it richens it up

15hp is a whole lot of hp

Sparrowlegs is right it is meant for fuel injected bikes :!:

All Firestorms are not fuel injected, they have two large carburetters instead :!: :D

the VTR it is referring to in the add is probably the SP's 1&2

I have seen the same ad advertising this power gain allegedly for the Firestorm on OZ Ebay sometime back.

I've just found the same ad, although in the UK this time :!:

I was about to say "ooohhh wouldn't trust plugging something in to my pride and joy". Then i thought, better not write that 'cos i already have a power commander, and we know that they are reliable and don't cause any problems......... 8O 8O

it sounds exactly like the de-limiter you plug into a TL, which is fuel injected, my mate had one and he says it did make a difference, i looked at the ad, and in the FAQ's it says it will fit all petrol, fuel injected bikes.....that rules the storm out, even though the ad says its for a storm. i sent him a question so we'll see what reply i get.
