I saw one guy who was spamming every section of DT about it like it was God's gift to trucks...didn't really look into it.

hmmm from what i read, which isnt much, its the same idea as noise canceling for stereo components, supposed to smooth idle. im going to try it on my tahoe as it has a really rough idle and no one seems to be able to pinpoint the problem. 3 dealerships and nothing has been said other than these engines just run rough. BS its a 2007 and the revs bounce all over at idle.

Timmy, how much to make me one as well? I started reading through the 15+ page thread and it sounds legit. There were a couple of members that I highly respect (jmgak, shikkityshack) who tried and now swear by it.
