like many of us CL members. we always wanna juice out the most power outta our Lexus.. when i saw this, 98% said" this is freaking Bull*****".. but that other 2% just kept me thinking..
you're suppost to put this on the air tube.. and somehow it'll create a tornado effect with air which would increase fuel and power, blah blah blah.. please. somebody tell me that this thing won't even do a dam thing but hurt my car...

Won't do jack, won't hurt you either though.

It's supposed to "spin" the air in the intake tube and create a "vortex" to pull in more air... they fail to realize that all the bends in the tubing completely negate the effects and so it becomes kind of a block in the system.

Cool

I assume that is the 'Tornado' type device? Save your money dude......if something like that was that good......it would be standard equipment as it would benefit the automakers to increase fuel economy on their fleet of vehicles. It's a crock!
