Default MPG's ????

Anyone use those Tornado Air Managment Systems ?

Do they really help with Mileage/Power or is it a waste?

I would belive they are a waste of money. They are the same thing as a throttle body spacer. Spend the money on performance parts.

they may work on carbeurated engines but not on these magnum engines because of the beer barrel type intake manifold. Besides, swirling air on a fuel injected engine doesnt do any good anyway, but it will help a carbed engine some.
