I asked this awhile back I bumped into it looking for tsb- everyone was pretty convinced it was a scam... Although if you do buy it - let us know if it worked.

Think about it. After this gizmo the air has to go through the throttle plates and into the air plenum. Then it is divided into each cylinder. Whatever "vortex" this thing generates would be lost by the time it is stinked into the cylinder. I could be wrong, but I don't see how it could work.

OK, air is not stinked into a cylinder. Sometimes the word police kinda bother me. I used the word to describe the drawing of air, like through a straw. I think the word filter is clogged.

Maybe you should put an 8cm cooling fan from a computer in there instead. Now that would get the air movin :-)

I posted this before....I know the owners of this company and to say they are shady is an understatement. It doesn't work, never will, and you will only be giving your money to an asshat illegal alien that came up with this idea. Nuff said.

You have to be kidding, right? That phoney scam is nothing but a rip off. All it could do is cause a loss of power and gas milage, if it does anything at all.

According to the September 2004 Consumer Reports page 6 these type of products do not work.
