I dont know, I did this mod and tried it out driving around and the car didnt heat bog which it always does in this miami weather. I mean for the dollar that it costs to do it, it's well worth it. Some may argue and say that it's the placebo effect, however heat bog isn't. It worked for me thats all I have to say.

maybe you're not aware of what cognitive dissonance is. in other words, of course you "perceive" a difference because your mind tells you that you should. the power of suggestion/placebo is a powerful thing.

the only way to really determine would be to do some experimenting. but, it's not worth the time, since the engineers have already proven this mod does nothing.

but im not going to continue in this discussion, because i can only repeat myself so many time.

I'll do some testing once the EMS is in...although it will not soley be for this mod. And I'm not afraid to be let down either. Placebo is strong, often 50% of drugs affects are simply placebo.
