Has anyone checked out one of those $8.50 chips on Ebay?
I assume your talking about the TMAP sensor...if so here is the pin layout. You would be interested in the air intake temp pin. I would take a Digital volt meter and measure the voltage outputs and then do the math to figure out if the ohm ratings of that resistor would be affective. You also may need a more complicated circuit to obtain your desired results. You may need to put in a diode to act as a voltage clamp so your voltage does not drop to far resulting in poor performance and a check engine lite.
1. ground
2. intake air temp supply/signal voltage
3. pressure sensor supply voltage
4. pressure sensor signal voltage
Here are some notes for the sensors:
Tmap. High voltage means low IAT.
Low voltage means high IAT.
1. ground
2. intake air temp supply/signal voltage
3. pressure sensor supply voltage
4. pressure sensor signal voltage

If you want to hook it up connect it to the temperature wire on you map sensor. It reads the voltage and all you'll be doing is putting resistance on the wire. It'll think its getting colder air and advance your timing but when it's 90 degrees outside and your timing is advanced with hot azz intake temps.....boom schacklackalackalcakca. It's no joke!
I bought this awesome big brake kit for $100 on ebay. The instructions said to go to footlocker, buy size 12 Jordans and cut out a 10x10 square on the driver's side floor. The stopping was great but i go through pads like crazy!
Here's some more super hot Performance Enhancements to complement the 8.50 ebay chip!

So far I'm stupid and need everyone's approval...
I don't care what you think of me(at least not anyone who's responded to this query so far!) because I have plenty of self confidence. What I lack is information. I hope it's in a Bently manual, since this forum has been useless so far. SO FAR! Maybe if I keep sparring with these helpful, kind hearted folks I could maybe draw in someone with a more engineering mind, before I have to buy the big book. Okay, I guess I have to throw out some bait for the detractors to keep my quest open on the forum. How many of you naysayers knows how to determine the resistance rating of a resistor by looking at it? It's by the color of the stripes! There, now I have to put a stupid smilie and a sad one since I'm both stupid and nobody likes me. -Yours Always, Jeffy.
:cookie: for you. do you actually know what the stripes mean or do you just know that colors indicate values?
Just install a great mod like a cold air intake? Electric supercharger? Big Muffler? Magnetic fuel line ionizer? Awesome wing? Are you getting no respect from your friends for your newly found power? As we all know, these are high end and sophisticated modifications. Some may be TOO sophisticated to actually show up on a traditional dyno. So here we have: The Butt Dyno. Simply place it in the seat, and drive fast, weaving in and out of traffic. (On a race course, of course.) Now you can tell your friends with confidence "That oil-saturated air filter gave me 20 horses!"

seriously, dont try and impress anyone over the internet. youll be wasting your time. everyones a bad *** while sitting behind their monitor.
it might be best if you head back to the civic forum you hatched from.
"The idea is sound- it modifies info from the air intake temp sensor so it will go into a more aggressive ignition curve."
I'm still a little confused with his reference to "aggressive ignition curve"...
Aggressive?... it advances or retards faster? To what end?
Unless 30 years of training, working, diagnosing, cursing automobiles has led me to miss something, the only "ignition curve" I'm familiar with is advancing or retarding timing. That, most assuredly, is not rocket science, and the onboard chip handles that pretty well (with input from temp, knock, load, manifold pressure, O2 sensors, etc, etc.) If you're gonna mess with it, get a new chip or get re-flashed, change all of the programing so it works together, not just one little part of it.
Or buy a can of the new ultra-light weight blinker fluid to use in that flux capacitor...

I'm only reading this post now to get a good laugh to start my work day. That being said, i needed bigger injectors for my Mini, but, instead i decided to bore out my fuel lines to get more fuel to my four pissers. It's what the Hondas are doing!

Are the transistors as good as the transformers? Cause I have some transformers laying around that I could stick in my car. And if that is the case, would the resistors that be the same as the decepticons?
Nah, the Decepticons are totally bad guys... the Resistors just don't like change and they picket and protest and stuff.
Oh, yah, PGT, good point: "Bad Boys Ravish Only Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly"
Had this hammered into my head many, many years ago... glad it still works.

You guys don't even need me in this thread anymore!
I posted a reply last night but it went away. Once again, Trickle X gave me the scoop I needed- higher voltage at low air temps... So a resistor is not going to help at all. I'm glad that people were entertained by this thread, though. If I had my way, I would go the MTH route, since they require testing results from your engine before giving you the program- so your mods will be addressed and results maximised. Hopefully we can play again soon. I like people to have a good time if even at my expense, as long as it doesn't get so bad that I get thrown out of a Mini event by haters! Minis are fun, well-made and even economical, but can never be too fast, so keep hot-rodding! It's all fun, hooah? -Jeffy.
