Re: Rapid Velocity Module

Joe, before I get flamed (as I am known to have received licks of them in the past) for pre-judging an untested "performance enhancing" product such as this "elixir" claims to do, I will say only this; rumors have it that if you install this device on your car, you should wear a copper bracelet on your wrist and a garlic necklace around your neck. The three coupled together will produce a magnetic and spiritual field so great that even the spirits will make you think that your truck is running faster.

The truth is that HP doesn't come cheap and $40 will definitely not give you that perception.

Andy, you just described my grandmother! You left out her mustache, though.

Re: Rapid Velocity Module

Joe C, let me be the first to welcome you to the ROC...
This topic has been debated in the past and it seems the general concensus is that no, these types of add ons don't work.

Do a search if your interested in what debating can be like round these parts. It can get interesting....

Joe, where's my manners! Welcome buddy & sorry for the absence of a proper ROC greeting!

Thank God we have classy people like Brich on this board that remind us every once in a while to use our manners!
