I would pay good money to see someone take a stock 986 S and get 39 additional horsepower out of it on a dyno by connecting some device to the OBD II port. This is compete nonsense, and also seems to come without any valid explanation of how it does this magic trick other than "modifies the engine's factory settings responsible for fuel injections and ignition timing advance in order to maximize power and torque."

What was it the P.T. Barnum said about a fool and his money?
