You got scammed.

There is no 'chip' that is available for ANY Scion that does what they claim.

Sorry, hope you can get your money back.

do not do it. I bought that thing as well its just a 50 cent resistor that has a certain load to tell your intake sensor that it is cold outside, resulting in richer mixture of fuel and air! But do what you want, its your sci!
