Default Turbonator Fake or real
I was reading that if you get this turbonator thing you can receive up to a 10% boost in your horsepower and low end torque, true... or not

Waaayyy false. I think that thing could eventually screw up your engine. If anything, it restricts airflow.

The same thing goes for the "tornado" thing they sell from magazines such as JC Whitney. It will restrict airflow, not help. If you leave it in too long I bet it would tear up your engine.

We need to develop a product in house here and call it the tea-bagger....

Dip it in your oil twice a month and it doubles the longevity of it....how is that for a start?

Sounds like a winner. I'd buy that over the turd-bonator any day!

If anything you would imagine it to rob you of hp rather than give it... i wouldnt mess around with that thing from the start.
