your right but there is no weight behind it though.so its not efficient
In natural tornados you better believe there is. As for the tornado, after reading this testimony I'm glad I didn't buy one when I had my Camry. Sorry you threw that chunk of change away.

Weapon R has employed this same principle in their "Secret Weapon" intake filters and people are eating it up and buying them like hotcakes.
actually, the weapon r systems don't use the swirling air principle. they use two different air speeds that create a vacuum and supposedly suck more air into your engine. i wont get one b/c i think it wont really help. i know people who got that tornado thing and they say its complete crap as well.

Some of you younger guys and gals may be too young to remember
this thing was marketed back in the sixties. It was a worthless piece of crap then
and it still is today. Every time gas prices take big jump the
hustlers and swindlers jump in the fray with a 'miracle' to save you gas.
remember; if it's too good to be true, it is.

Let's think of it this way:

If the Tornado principle really worked, why aren't car manufacturers incorporating it into their intake designs?

i had a tornado my friend gave me, my gas mileage went down but my intake was louder, it didn't give me any noticable power so i got rid of it
