Also can get information from tornadofuelsaver.com. I was wondering about that same thing after watching blurry eyed that early morning infomercial.

Might work on carburated engines, with the extra swirling and all to promote better air fuel mix.

If a swirling effect does occur, will the higher pressure areas be at the outer edges, closer to the butterfly openings, and will this also lead to better filling of the individual manifold runners? If so, this _might_ work. Increased hp and fuel savings have been claimed. Of course, a lot of things claim those things but don't really work.

Who will test? Easy in/out for dyno testing....

please guys don't spend your money on this garbage. I can get into an explaination of why it won't work if you want but I really don't feel like typing that much right now. If you want a couple hints, go start your car and put your hand behind the exhaust and tell me where all the exhaust is coming out. The edges right. think about it

Listen to VTECnology, this is a waste. I don't feel like typing either, but the short explanation is by the time you get down the intake your swirling is over. You are not going to gain anything but a loss of time and money from this product. In theory it works on paper and with many unaccountables in it's favor, but hey, so does communism.

putting a type-R sticker on bumper will give you more horse power.

No joke. I bet the sticker weighs less than the tornado.
