Default Tornado 4-13 HP increase???

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this... JC Whitney has a product called the Tornado. It goes into your air intake hose and swirls air around to improve HP and Fuel economy. I think they're pretty cheap too...$64.99 + $10.99 shipping. Here's the link.

I was wondering if anyone has used one? Or if anyone has any theories on whether or not this thing would work on an SC4?

Here's the listing for SC400

Again, I'm just curious to hear what some people think about it, so please don't call me any names...lol. Just honest, factual posts...I already know "you get what you pay for", so let's keep it constructive. Peace to all!

Default Thoughts?

Worthless piece of metal that if did increase hp and mileage every car company on the earth would be on it for pennies putting it in all of their vehicles. Most people think its garbage, so I'm gonna spend my 75 bucks on something else.

Default

don't waste your time....

I won't even copy and paste my repsonse on this last time....look at this conversation.
It really wouldn't be woth it. If it was any good, more folks would have it. Bottom line - it is more restrictive than anything else
