I think, it is TV BS. Your car was designed to function at high output already, the fuel and air mix was already calculated by JP engrs.. It might help some 70' trucks though.

More pseudo-science backed up with bogus claims and data...............

Ricardy, here's a rule of thumb when evaluating TV/web/magazine offers of devices/services/ways to get rich/blah/blah/blah: if it sounds too good to be true, it IS.

The only thing that such things are good for is seperating money from gullible individuals who want something for nothing (and nobody ever went broke overestimating the number of those)!

Caveat emptor.

Just think of it this way.....if there was something this amazing on the market, don't you think auto manufacturers would have already implemented it on production cars?

They sell plenty of Tornado-like devices here in Mexico. I know a guy who sells legit and then these semi-legit things, and he does a great job in conning people. It is all psychological.

The air just does not blow that hard for this device to make a real difference.

I have a friend at GM Mexico who has seen this particular device you are referring to. If they BSed people at the dealer about this, the government would clamp down extremely hard.
