I am a member of consumer reports and they had an article which flat out said that those things like the tornado that suppossedly mix the air and fuel better don't work. THey tried it on multiple cars and said no hp increase and no fuel economy increase. Flat out a waste of money. So don't believe their lies. I would link it but you all aren't members. Just thought I would save someone who has thought about it some money.

They arent really super chargers, but they do the same function in a way. They just spin the air to mix the o2 with the gas more efficiently, thus in theory, produce a better combustion. But I always knew that it was B.S.

Considered it posted. I went to copy the article but our month long subscription ran out, but not befre i read about the ding king and Mr clean auto dry. Both work, one better than the other. I will post what I remember later.

I have the ding king... but its a pain in the arse to use, and its not as efective.

I hate to admit it but I sprung for a Tornado in 1996. It did not do one thing except remove $69.95 from my pocket. Live and learn!!

Electric fans in the intake...totally Craptastic. I have a portable hand fan that is about as effective as that junk. Let me hold it up to my intake and "help mix my fuel". :eek: It may cause some type of swirl, so what.
