oil pump swap does not add power (I know you know this), and is also not a easy mod, nor is a ported head. Also known of that is needed for 14's.

If you even had a basic knowledge about cars, you would see that these gimmicks do nothing and are just a scam.

It wasnt. If you want more power and better fuel economy then to the actually physical mods that help. Tricking the sensors will only make the engine run less efficiently and when that happens you lose power and fuel economy.

In laymans terms they trick you O2 sensor into making the computer dump fuel into the cylinder. Making it run stupid rich and killing your performance and gas mileage.
