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".

Ok usually I don't flame people, but seriously dude. Search. The thing sucks *****. Don't get it.

ORIGINAL: Nail I3unny

ok...today we got about the billionth thread on this thing. id like to put it out there once and for all that the turbonator DOES NOT WORK. it sucks power from your battery and gives you nowhere near as much power as it claims. here are some threads on this thing:

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
