Hey, I saw a bunch of these on ebay selling for 5 - 20 dollars http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7952225120&category=33597 and looked into it more. I found out that the chip is just a group of resistors that atach to your intake sensor that trick your ECU into thinking its 37 degs. I was just curious if anyone knew to resistor values for a 95 protege 1.5L.

Thank you for your time,
Robert

Yeah, that is all that it is. This does NOT help. If anything it can hurt your car. If you really want to find out, set your fridge to 37d and put the IAT in. Then after a while take it out and use a DMM to get the resistance.
