Default "The Tornado"

I read some crap in a magazine about this metal thing that u stick in the hose of you intake and will supposivly giv u a performace boost and better gas mileage....i really think this is a load of crap and it seems to be very over priced. i found a couple of websites on it if u havnt heard of what im talking about. let me kno what u think about this "tornado".

The only thing out there (similar) that might give you a bit of performance for your money is the throttle body spacer.

Take it easy on civicexracer, afterall, how was he supposed to know? And I know everyone doesn't do a "search" before every one of their posts.
Look at the Arial Atom post, it's the 3rd time now. (just an example, I'm not flamin anyone)

I'll repeat myself: weld a tornado into your exhaust...it'll make it swirl ... especially if you're burning oil:-D

j/k
