STEP BACK FROM THE ORDERFORM!!!!!!!!

WASTE OF MONEY BAD COMPANIES PRAYING ON PEOPLE FEARING HIGH GAS PRICES!!!!!!!!

there was an article that yahoo actually sponsered the other day (this week) citing that SPECIFIC item saying how it was completely false.

if you want i can outline just exactly why it doesn't work. but i think hankL probably already posted it.

it will actually block the flow of air in the intake and cause more restriction than the stock exaust already does. besides it does not even fit the stock exaust. as for spinning the air to create a tornado like effect.. only good if carbed, and AFTER the carb.



SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! spend it on something useful.. like the girl/boy friend wife whoever. hell spend it on me!

Turbonator, Tornado, all those things ---- scam.
There's guy on TV, Sam Memelo or something like that. Car repair show used to be called Shade Tree Garage, later changed to Two Guys Garage. It was a good show. Then one day on tv or magazine I see him advertising the Tornado to increase hp, improve gas mileage, reduce friction, run cooler, reduce hair loss, improve sex life, live longer, shinier paint, etc, etc. What a joke. There ought to be a law against selling scams.
