IM PRETTY SURE YOU GUYS HAVE LOOKED ON THE LAST FEW PAGES OF SUPER STREET, IMPORT TUNER, OR SO ON AND SO ON AND SEEN THE AD FOR SUPERCHARGE ANY CAR FOR $69.95. AT TURBONATOR.COM. WELL I WAS DRAWN TO SEE WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT. ITS A ADD ON TO THE INTAKE THAT MIXES THE AIR FUEL MIXTURE. IT SAYS THAT IT WILL INCREASE HP UP TO 35HP. BUT WHEN I LOOKED ON THE SITE IT SEEMED JUST LIKE THE TORNNADO FUEL SAVER THAT YOU SEE ON TV EVERY NOW AND THEN.

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS ACTUALLY WORKS? I HAVE HEARD ONCE THAT IT ACTUALLY DECREASES THE FLOW. AND WILL IT WORK WITH AN AFTERMARKET INTAKE SYSTEM?

I MEAN FOR $39.99 FOR UP TO 35 HP I WOULD GIVE IT A TRY.

You said it right there. Their a joke. If some piece of metal could only help cars for no cost at all then every automaker would use them. Or at least the higher preformance cars.

They dont do anything. Infact they

i'm probably gonna get flamed on this one, but my mechanic supports the tornado air thing. he says he has one in his 4runner, and it boosts some of the performance on the car. before you start flaming, he went to honda's training school in japan before, and has been a mechanic ever since then. soo, i guess it's one of those things you'll just have to try and see for yourself.

He must be under their power or something. lol

SCC magazine tested one awhile back.....it proved to be a restriction in the intake and reduces power on the dyno. It can't move more air than the engine will injest on it's own. Do NOT waste your time or money

the engine would probably pull the fan blade on that thing faster than the motor could spin it LOL

You're off the forum if you put one on a itr! lol The owner at the dyno shop we've been going to said that they were approcahed by someone from this company about selling this in his shop. He told them no. They brought up the fact that this is such a big seller and he'll double his money. He bascially told him that he doesn't want to rip his customers off giving them a product that wouldn't increase hp. Just for shits and giggles, he took one and put it in one of his employees cars (turbo civic) and threw it up on the dyno and it actually robbed about 15hp. Needless to say they arent selling this there.
