There was another thread about those things (several names out there).

When I thought about putting one of those on my car, my brain "farted" very loudly, and NO was the outcome !!!!!

What a worthless waste if $$$ that would be !!!!

never tried it...but ive looked into it...if you go to teh website it tells you how it works and what teh design of the damn thing is...might as well make your own and put it in there to see if it works...its def not worth 60 bucks, as for increasing mpg...i really really doubt that it does that either...but you could be the first...and tell us how it works

is that the thing that you put into your intake? if its what i'm thinking of then it is crap. i've heard that it doesnt work once you hit 80mph. but whoever hits 80 mph anyway

yea its that thing that just swirls the air around...if you get a proper intake...you shouldnt have a problem since hte velocity of the air into the motor will be high enough to swirl the air around in teh combustion chamber, 80mph? thats the slowest my car goes
