Question Tornado insert?

Has anyone installed a tornado insert into the intake line? or other brands?

does it seem like it gives you those 2-3 HP? is it worth $70

how about throttle body spacers...any good?

Angry crap-nado

I had 91 f150 with a 351 FI. I tried the tornado and it did absolutely nada zero zip.

I think that everyone agreed that they aren't worth installing.

the $70 can be spent elsewhere!

towards tires or something!

Yea, I tried the the Tornado too, and returned it. Funny thing... they never got it (!?!?) and I was too dumb to have insured it. The bad taste is all of the Bible verse crap all over their box!
