If a relatively inexpensive chip could give increased fuel milage with increased performance, don't you think Honda would put it in. I call BS!

WOW 70HP as well. I had to spend 6 grand on my GTO for that.

It's junk.

Wow, what a device! Adds 70HP, and 25MPG (so you'll be getting about 45MPG with your Ridgeline). Not only that but it finally solves that age old problem: world peace.

Install this and all your days will be sunny and warm.

Install this and your arthritis will never bother you again.

Install this and you're wife/husband/significant other will suddenly look irresitable all the time.

Back to reality: Install this and I guarantee the following: your wallet will be lighter. Nothing else.

with a lighter wallet, that WILL increase your MPG as you'll be transporting less weight, so it does work to a lesser degree

Re: GAS FUEL SAVER PERFORMANCE CHIP.. is this BS ?

What are you guys talking about?

All of these $5 trinkets increase DO increase gas mileage and horsepower.

I installed them all.... SIMULTANEOUSLY!

My Ridgeline now has 3000 horsepower and gets 257 miles to the gallon AND as a side benefit picks up every loose piece of metal on the road as I drive over it because of the 22 magnets that I have installed along the fuel line!

Well...if I can say this politely...to quote PT Barnum, "A sucker is born every minute." Buy this gadget and PT Barnum will love you....even though he's dead.
