The price might be nice, but I wouldnt buy it. Have you ever heard of that company? 20 horsepower is like a 15% gain on the lancer, thats a lot. I would have to see the proof to believe it. As far as hurting the ECU, who knows. Kinda like will it really give me 20 horsepower? Watch out for some things on E-Bay.

Send them an e-mail and ask them how it works exactly. I bet it's some resistors in a pretty plastic pack.

"We guarantee that our Zero Gravity Module will outperform ANY other performance module on the market for under $175.00 Our products for the past several years has undergone rigorous testing and has been fine tuned to not only meet but surpass that of higher priced Modules. Because of our confidence in our product if you find a mod that out performs ours we will not only refund you for the Zero Gravity Mod we will pay for the other module."
Hmmmmm, too bad they limit it to $175 mods. They know a reflash, piggy-back, or emanage costs at least $400. I'd agree, it's justa bunch of resistors in a box. Probably wouldn't hurt a stock ecu, but you can get the same gains from a 50 cent resistor at radio shack. And it probably wouldn't work with the RRM piggy-back, which would give you much better gains.

Let's get RRM to give us all BS receipts stating that we paid $172 for the piggy back and use the Zero Gravity refund to pay for half of the piggyback!

dont do it, its ****. I bhought one last summer just because, well i had money and didnt really care to waste it. And i like to see things for myself.
Did nothing, just --- its all a mental thing thinking your going faster when your really overall not going faster at all. It just makes the SES light come on and all that good stuff that can hurt your car.

Yeah don't trust ebay because all you can give them is negative feedback if they get bad enough feedback they could just use another ebay name, that's why I don't use ebay.
