Because no details were given, plus the only thing they will say is that there is a money back guarantee. Sounds like something being pitched on the shopping channel, not a legit performance part.

How could they say they didn't even hookup AF gauge because they aren't trying to manipulate the AFR? What if this modification DOES modify the AFR?
