Dyno tested one of those about 8 years ago....(Tornado) the only thing it did was come apart and send a blade into the intake manifold...

Ooooooh, the TURBONATOR! I've used these for years. They magnaflux the air molecules as they enter the intake manifold. This garnered me an additional 53.2999 whp on my old VW Beetle. The current generation of this device will also de-exonerate the Nitrogen into Nitronium for a much better combustion. On my Vortech, I'm able to dyno at 487.26 whp and get 63.83 mpg while cruising. This has got to be a MUST BUY!
Don't let anyone give you that "Sucker is born every minute" line. This thing REALLY works. I am living proof on my planet Adnoid, that these things are the shit! DO IT! In fact, get TWO and mount them in series and DOUBLE your gas mileage instantly.

They do help cut up the random squirrels and small birds that get sucked into the intake with the air filter off. It cuts em up really nice to increase the mammal-bird-air-fuel ration for more combustion! Sure we've got water and alcohol injection, but wait till you suck in a blue jay, youve never seen power like that. Good luck ever getting traction when you hit an owl!

There's a guy in town with one of those in his S2K. I talked to him at a BBQ a few weeks back about car mods.

Me: Still stock?
Him: "I got a Tornado, that shit works dawg."
