I have some nice oceanfront property in Kansas too...

Don't waste your money. It won't do anything, seriously. If it was so amazing and costed nothing, everyone would have been using it, and Nissan would have just done it from the start. The only real modifiers for the Altima engine right now come from Bullydog....

Personal experience with the BullyDog PowerPup on my 2.5L: Well worth it. -- If you have supporting mods. It will be noticeable on a stock car but if you have intake and exhaust it will yield better results. You have the ability to adjust timing +/- 2 degrees and setup the tune for 91+ octane. It's simple plug, program, unplug deal. Works well.
