Not sure if any of you have heard of it, but the Tornado is this circular piece you put in your air intake, i guess what it does is twists the air the goes in like a tornado and it's supposed to, give you, "more paower (up to 15 hp), more MPG (up to 24%)" Was wondering if any have tried this???

-Marcus.

p.s. Saw the add in Truckin', and also a little while ago on T.V. late at night.

 

If it really produced 15 hp, you can bet we'd all have 'em installed.

Thanks for the en-lightning-ment pvteye.

 

i'll bet Top Gun is running two of those things. one question though, if you try to flush one of those things down the toilet, would the double vortex action cancel each other out, or would it simply vanish into another dimention?

 

The causal vortex created would result in a black hole that would suck in the entire universe, resulting in a severe lack of Lightings.

I’ve got one coming. As an added bonus for those who order now, it comes with a magnet you put around the fuel line to align the carbon molecules so they burn better. Think I’ll mount it next to my water injector (‘Fill up with a garden hose!’).

Where do they come up with this crap? Think of all the twisting and turning the incoming air makes on its way into each cylinder without this device. For us Lightning owners, think of the swirl created in the supercharger and intercooler! The manufactures spend millions developing ‘swirl’ and ‘tumble’ in the intake runners and combustion chambers. Do you think they haven’t tried this?

BTW - I forgot to ask if they sell a model that spins the other way for the southern hemisphere.

Wow you guys are on the ball!!
How about this... Anyone running Slick 50?

Maybe a high speed fan that connects to our trailer hitch that wires into our trailer harness would give us 10 mph.

I think it's time to make an informercial!
