Question Question about turbonators

Hey everyone, I'm new on this forum and when I got here I saw an add for the turbonator for only 70 bucks and I was just wondering if it's any good or a scam or what the deal is. If someone could let me know that would be great. Thanks.

I was crazy enough to try one and found no improvement in MPG or response. To me, it was just an obstruction in the intake tube. Besides, these are supposed to be installed before the Throttle, so doesn't that negate the quote/unquote vortex effect?

Given my basic knowledge of physics I'm going to have to aggree. I don't for see anything like that actually helping since it is, installed before the throttle body.
