    I can't tell you wether it's legit or not, but if it is I highly doubt you would get anywhere near 20hp gain.

    If you really want more hp through a chip, just get your ECU re-programmed.

    yea there real... real 25 cent resistors if you want to make your own plug a 3.3K resistor into the A intake temp sensor. I personally felt a bit of power loss.

    You would be better off spending $50 on an new air intake. I guarentee that will make more power.

    Actually it would probably work on 88-what ever there were a lot of changes for the 88 accords and there manifold are very similar to the 90 accord

    I bought the first one before but like 3 days after I put it in I blew my head gasket
