Why would your warranty go down the drain with a ram air setup that seems pretty dumb. I have a lifetime warranty on my truck's internals but if they don't want me to modify it at all then I'll just have to stick my contract up their a**.

ORIGINAL: 1 bad durango

the tornado is a waste ,the air is not still spinning when it gets into the combustion chamber so who cares what it does before that,
Its not that theair is spinning when it gets to the combustion chamber.. its the hole Idea that when air is flowing in the spiral the more air will travel though the intake such as a turnado.... thats how a Vortect eng works that why they can get a horse 291 out of a I 6. I think it is because of number one the vortect have started to perfect this air that has no strictions and can actualy get more air into the eng by having it spin.. if that makes sense to you guys.. as for the turnado part you put in your car.. it has been proven in cars to work great and other not to work at all.. as for a durango haven't seen a review on that yet.. but as for the concept it is a good one if the moter is set up for the turnado like flow like the new chevy engs have...

meangreen puting a ram air would not void my warrenty.. I have already have a rip off intake on my durango that my bro bought me and a tb spacer that I hear doesn't do any anthying but it was free so I stuck it on there.. and my 3inch magna flow exhaust... but I want to do more but I am going to wait.. because I paid a hell a lot for this damn two year warrenty so I will keep it... pluss that gives me time to save up for some thing I really want to do to my ride like headers,52mm TB, M1 intake, and down the line a new supercharger maybe a more heave duty rear end (for towing) and new trainy for the superchager.. but that is the wish list and lets be honest a for a 21 year old kid in college thats a prety damn pricy wish list.. but maybe some day..... AS for the Ram Air hood the look I love I wish I just had the cash.... Next for me though will be rims and tires.. then brush gaurd and other stuff......

yeah I have always wanted a ram air hood. but I am now thinking about the future.. and I have 2 years left on my warrenty I don't want to have that money go down you drain you know.. but that gives me two years to save up for my supercharger for durango.. so next to hydra I will be one of the fastest durangos in utah.. but damn if hydra gets a supercharger and doesnt let me know about it that will suck.. :-) ... and most hoods I have seen have all ben like 500+ dollors and then you have to paint it and get it mached..so I am not sure I want to spend that kinda money if it will not work with supercharger (my thoughts in seeing the supercharger thinks it wont work) so if the case is is wont work I will look into other things .. like new laptop..
Tornado is for EFI motors. Not for MPI which is ours. Not to mention that a piece could brake of and go directly into the motor and you can kiss your motor goodbye. I did find a link some were around here with all the TB spacer and Tornado Dinos. They showed no improvement. It actually lowered the at the wheel HP and torque.

As for the Supercharger Jpondo5.9, it will have to wait for now I got some bigger issues with the trans right now. But all in good time my friends.

RE: Cold Air Intake and Tornado???
and hydra don't get me wrong I think the tornado is junk for our truck yes.. and the only reason I have a tb spacer is I put it on so my intake would fit nice.. I figured I didn't do much from every thing I read but I got it free with the intake and it helps the fit so I put it on.. as for the supercharger that sucks you have to wait.. but for the trany good call get that sucker fixed for sure..
