Re: Does the Tornado work?

Manufacturers go to great lengths to laminate airflow going into the engine. Many MAFs have screens of little airfoils, most TBs are dual butterflies to keep things on the straight and narrow. Many even put airfoils inline between the filter and TB to make sure air DOESN'T swirl. Laminar flow is good all the way past the valve. Once in the chamber, swirl is good, but the tornado wouldn't affect that.
