What a Joke! Maybe I should copy someones else's scam, and try and sell it for much more money.At first I thought it was another electric supercharger.But's it just another stick it in type product.If they worked don't you think the auto manufactors would put them in everything they make to improve they CART.

And another one:http://www.spiralmax.comThere is quite a few gimmick products out there like these three.They claim to increase HP and fuel economy, but I don't see how.I would recommend not buying these products and sticking to the proven performance upgrades like CAI, Cat-Back and Uni-chip.

I've seen a few things about the Tornado Air... they say it gives like a 5-10% increase in gas mileage..or...like.. 1-2 mpg. It's a $60 piece.. Dunno. If I ever have money I wanna blow, maybe i'll try it. But...clutch first..
