    i've had people come into my store saying it works.... i pretty much told her she was stupid.... because the laws of physics says that molecules will move the fastest direction naturally...... then i got to thinking about it.... there's no way for a performance gain... but possibly a fuel cunsumption gain... seeing how air would be blocked a bit, less fuel would be delivered... lol

    Does this think actually work? I'm really skeptical about it because of the totally bogus numbers that they quote in the ads. My dad wanted to buy them for all of our cars, but I told him that it's a waste of money. What do you all think?

    my theory on it, when they did the infomercial on TV and the did the sample with the 2-2liters, the reason it went faster when it went into a cyclone is because the air had a less turbulated ride, and the water the same...but for the intake, its a 1-way road, so why the fuck would it matter if its spinning or not? and after the TB it splits into the 4(or however many cylinders) there are, and do u think id still be spinning after that?

    its amazing what morons can invent and make money off of

    (sorry if i didnt clearly explain myself. im bout ready to crask on my KB..guess its time to sleep)

    haha, i can tell you for sure that the air does not keep spinning once it passes the device. i took fluid mechanics last year. this thing is equivalent to putting a piece of trash in your intake.

    I feel this way about it. 60 dollars for a piece of aluminum is stupid. It might work to some extent. I dont believe a word on that infomercial. The auto lock i have been told works. If you have a stick they can only roll the car, and in an automatic they can't get the car in gear. So i would say taht is a good product.
