Yall've got to see this. I cannot believe that people actually buy into this ****. You are better off putting a brick in your intake tract.

"You brick comes with 3 holes for $100, or you can get the super duper brick with FOUR holes for $150!!!! What will you ever do with all that air!"

Actually, I am feeling like a guinea pig, I might go pick up a tornado air management system up at autozone and try it. Of course I am gonna take it back! "30-day money back garauntee!"

I am curious to see if this is all a placebo effect thing (like adding octane booster) or if it might do just a smidget....never seen any live tests on this junk personally, just people saying it is junk when they have never tried it ( and I agree with them).

I actually saw someone install something like that to pull in cooler air to their intake.It wasn't used or intended to make boost just get colder air up to the intake.I can see that use of something like that but to make"boost" I highly doubt it.

that don't mean much...some of those magazines have advertised "pheremones, and enlargement pills" all thats crap...i guess if they pay enough they can buy ad space in Motor Trend. anyway...i'm going to put all octane booster in my truck instead of gas...i'll let ya know what happens...

Ja ever see the look on their face when you pull up to the airport fueling station and ask for 104 low lead? Costs about 120 bucks for 30 gal's, but do oyu know how much advance you can put in it?
