Default Is this a scam?

I found this on ebay and I have a hard time believing it will add upwards of 20 hp for just 25 bucks.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RACIN...12647150QQrdZ1

If its legit then is there any disadvantage to equipping my 99 Z28 with a chip? Will my check engine light always be on or something?
I want to add a couple of cheap power adders to my car this summer but Im concentrating on cosmetics and this looked like it would be a good idea and you cant beat the price.

Probably the same old 10 cent resitor that is being sold by others on EBay.

That is a common mistake people make. Radio Shack sells resistors 5 for $1.00. So that makes it a .20 cent resistor
I like the ad though. Sex sells! LOL
I saw on ebay a guy had a number of ads selling autometer gauges and he took a close up pic of the gauges while a woman was holding it between her breast. Well upon close inspection one pic you could see the woman was wearing falsies! At least I think it was a woman. No face just ***** (ruber one at that)
