So far there has been only 1 guy who said he actually used this product and didnt like it. Im not truly certain if he actually used it or not but his answer so far means soo much more then people putting this device down when they themselves havent personaly used it. Facts prove soo much more then a mere guess.

Then buy the stupid thing. There's only one person to believe and it would be yourself. If I hear maybe 1 or 2 negative things about an item I might not 2nd guess, but if you have several people saying things about it and a magazine doing tests on it with the same results you would thin a logical person would be able to figure out what the thing can do.

Go buy it. Tell us your experience then. But don't say we didn't warn you.

except in the intake piping, you want a laminar flow, & the tornado doesnt swirl it to make it turbulent, but to make it spiral thru the piping, which will actually flow more air thru the piping than just a straight laminar flow. thats how the thing works in theory. whether it works in the real world of bending intake piping & so forth it still up in the air.

and interestingly if you recall your education in terms of the direct relationship between temperature, volume, and and turbulence.

if you get this cold air moving faster in this way it will expand in the tube, and end up not letting in the old volume you may have been getting without the turbulence.

so thats something to think about...

well he has posted this on other forums and everyone has said the same thing.

It would be like you asking me if taillight fluid gives you 50hp? Meanwhile everyone says it doesn't work, but one guy's friend's dog's owner said it worked for him a little.

If you are skeptical about our opinions don't go postal on us for saying we told you so

you seem to be hell bent on this thing....and despite what everyone says, you still keep fishing for a positive review. If everyone consistantly telling you that it doesn't work is not enough to disuade you, then go and by it. Generally, there are a good number of people on here who really know their stuff, and their opinions are worthy of respect. If all but one person tells you not to do something, generally its not a good idea. You seem determined to not concede to the fact that its not gonna work, so go spend your $70s on it...maybe you'll be surprised. If you get it, please post your impressions.

I'd be more than surprised if the thing really does anything. Hell Sport Compact Car did a dyno test on it last year and got nothing, zilch, nada, BIG FAT ZERO. But according to them they still have to run their ads cause they pay them money to help bring down the cost of the magazine.
