First rule of marketing: Always give yourself an out.
They market the Turbonator as giving you UP TO 35HP and 31% fuel economy. If it gave you zilch, it still would be "truthful" advertising. They would be lying if it gave you 36HP though.
I know of a certain doctor in San Jose that I would never go see even if he is the last doctor. I mean, you'd think that if someone was smart enough to upgrade from 1 Turbonator to two, he would have realized the potential to upgrade to 4. That would be like having a turbocharger, supercharger, AND NOS all at once.
My favorite is:
"In a completely stock 99' Dodge Neon sport, I gained ten horses and went from 34-37 wheel horsepower to 44-47 wheel horsepower (using a G-Tech Pro performance meter). I have also noted (when I drive responsibly) a gain in gas mileage. I also lost a full second off my Quarter-mile times; from 16.8 to 15.8 and probably could have done better with more time with the G-Tech."

I wouldn't be bragging a whole lot about going from 34 to 44 with a stock Neon. If you are only getting 44HP, you have a definite problem. Somewhere. I would have recommended two Turbonators that the good doctor uses. That should have bumped him UP TO 103HP.
