Hehe,

Do so at your peril!

I wouldn't think you would get 20hp, and it would depend on what the fuelling was to start with, subaru turbos tend to have too much fuel on boost anyhow.

LOL. It is for non-turbo cars and changes the intake air temperature signal to make it overfuel (sounds like designed for speed density ECUs). Don't think this would give "a more powerful detonation in the cylinders though"

Now for the technical bit

What is it?
The mod itself is a small resistor that tells your engine control unit (ecu) that all of the air coming into the engine is cold and therefore dense and packed with oxygen. The ecu then takes this info and tells the injectors to fuel slightly more. This in turn makes for a more powerful detonation in the cylinders and releases the full potential of your engine

Is my car compatible?
This mod will work on any vehicle built after 1988 and normally aspirated

What will it do for me
This mod will allow your engine to release it's full potential, your power curve will be smoother with flat spots ironed out, your 0-60 will be quicker so you can get off the line faster and your car will experience an increase in top end speed
