The Aero is just as Steve described. Here are some pics of the one that I put on my Ram.

dude that is just wrong lol

there is a thing called a turbo air guide TAG that some people use, similar to the tornado but this sits on the inlet side of the turbo and is supposed to help move more air in. have a look

This stuff ???







The TAG-II for the Dodge Cummins is a one piece stainless steel holder with mounting flange and the velocity stack taper CNC machined into the part with TAG honeycombs furnace brazed into both ends. Installation of the TAG-II is the same as the TAG with the flange of the part seating into the intake hose groove and the TAG projecting into the turbo inlet. $199



It TOO =

was that specificly on the TAG or was that the Tornado? I know the tornado's are crap and have read mixed reviews on the TAG from those who installed it.
