Yep it's no good.

Would you really put your engine's life into someone's hands who sells MISTUBISHI parts?

At the end i think it works but not going in to the damage engine part ... Basically it mod the ECU to think it's feeding cold air all the time ah?
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.

These things usually advance the timing, making the car run richer. Running too rich for too long is bad.

I was told there is a bit of different, but I yet to see the proof that they are different. If someone look up the CAP program, we can confirm it by parts number & see if it’s the same or different.

CAPS wont tell me much on whole g'box numbers...

I've heard there are differences too, but I'd think it all be in the Invec ECU for change & rev limit points.

I know there are two different boxes in the 4 & 5 speed, but from a manufactuing cost perspective, I wouldnt think there's would be any other variations (I could be wrong thou.)

Having said all that, they all bolt to the same block.
