AutoChip Direct SCAM!

Post by erick44 »

Hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know to NOT spend money on ACD (AutoChipDirect) products, Heard they were a scam when it was too late..I decided to check the chip to see if it was just a phony because the box is Glue'd shut? So after ripping the box apart with pliers I found a huge amount of glue filling up half the box to give it weight..at the very bottom I found a small chip which got my hopes up..but after melting glue for 10 mins I finally reached the chip..Turned out to be nothing more then a fake chip with two connectors that wern't ever making contact.. Sad to know there are people who do this because they can.

All the "Performance Chips" are nothing but a 15cent resistor in a $58 box. Why does GenVibe allow ADs for this c r a p???
