hey guys,

i was servicing my recently bought vt the other day a found a plug all taped up... wondering what it was i unpeeled it and it was the plug that plugs into the air box, but in the tape was a little block with a sticker "punk Performance" with the logo, so i was wondering how do i find out what type of chip is in and what exactly does it do, and whether i can do a few extra mods to improve kw and/or economy

Sounds like it is a resistor that some people use to make the computer think the motor is sucking in cold air. It richens up your fuel mixture slightly so if you want better economy take it off and plug the wires back into the airbox temp sensor

Translated as best as possible:

Dear chaps,
I have a VT 6 cylinder and I'd like to know what's wrong with my car. It has some poor body repairs and different colour paint when in the light.
I'm quite happy with the performance of my car, which I call Insanity... [unintelligible].
Dad and I do most repairs... [unintelligible].

Love you.
