PS:
A recent comment received on my blog from abdulrahman (Thanks you abdul):
Volkswagen Horsepower: A great deal of research and design goes into making the volkswagen horsepower, and that effort pays off in a safer, more efficient car that responds efficiently every time you step on the accelerator. The improved service that the chip provides is all in the programming that the chip brings to your vehicle, updating its electronic parts, improving the electronic ignition system and helping the engine to last longer. When your ignition system is firing more efficiently, you burn fuel more efficiently, which means more of your fuel is transformed into power, and less is released as exhaust and excess engine heat. Your exhaust will burn cleaner, too, which makes your Volkswagen all the more ecologically sound.
