LOL - Dude...please dont' waste your money on that thing - it is a gimmick. ;)

Edit - I especially like this testimonial from a Dodge neon user - http://www.turbonator.com/Tests.html - I sure am glad Chrysler gave a '99 Neon Sport 37 WHP :rolleyes:

haha...sweet - thanks BLU..I was too lazy to C&P the whole quote ;)

haha :hehehe: this is quoted from their site

"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." -Francis Mize (Cincinnati,OH)

What about those tests they have posted on their site??

Dyno Tests:
Horsepower increases of 4 to 13% were observed. Therefore, in a vehicle with 400 horse power, it would mean there was a change of 16 to 52 horse power !

I must admit it is kinda funny LOL :D

I haven't even seen it, but I can already tell you it's a piece of shit.
If it worked, even if it was cheap, we'd all have it already.
These poorly-conceived overrated leafblowers have been around a long time.
Check out my previous thread, Bogus Turbo?

PS-These things belong in the same aisle as the high-compression shift knobs, muffler bearings, and cans of muzzleblast.

hahahaha.....

My friend said that he got fired from a dealership for writing this on a repair order. I cant remember the whole story, but here's the short of it.


Cause of failure...."all of the smoke leaked out"

Course of action to repair failure...."vehicle needs new smoke"

hahahahaha.....

I saw some website, i don't remember what one, where the guy tried one out on his ZC civic and did his own tests and actually found that this fan slowed down his car because it couldn't move the air fast enough. He said he got a lot of lag and power loss as soon as he hit 4000 RPM. It's just a hoax, and is really nothing more than a high volume fan that is used to ventilate a boat's hull... you can get them at the marine shop for $25.

super street did an atricle on it a ways back, they noted that the thing starved the engine of air, by not letting enough in, and actually decressed horsepower rather then gaining it.
