Claims to increase 60 HP and 3-5 MPG. I have a 2023 Ford Raptor R, anyone try this one yet? I have reviewed the companies reviews and it seems suspicious that everyone out of hundreds gives it 5 stars? I'll take a recommendation if someone has one.

There's one thing I've noticed about the reviews on all these "chips". Go back and really look at them, they tend to all have little punctuation errors and just subtle odd turns of phrase. I think most of them are fake or auto generated reviews. I wouldn't touch one of these with a 10 foot pole. Also who actually makes tunes for Ferrari, Ford, Bentley, Eagle, Lotus, and Saab just to throw some random ones out there. If you noticed all of them for all the brands give 60 HP which is ridiculous.

Even their website lets you do this....lol Amazing to get an extra 60 HP out of a 4 cylinder 2021 c7 vette lol

i highly doubt the claim of any chip. only a tune which overwrites a computer can give you additional power. i remember a thread(s) back in the day going over these chips and how it only affects throttle position. kind of like a pedal commander these days
