Opinions please..
Now I don't buy the whole 35 horsepower increase bit but I was wondering, does it actually help performance? I have seen this product called the "Vortex" on horsepower t.v. and other shows on the speed channel.
How it swirls the air like a mini tornado effect which concentrates the airflow into a tighter stream which increases the amount of air into the intake. Would it help gas mileage as they advertise? It does sound convincing and since the guys on the performance car shows plug it, I figured it has to do some good. It goes after my K&N FIPK. Any feed back is appreciated. I prefer to ask you guys before I buy things because you have been through a lot of this and have a lot of experience. I value your judgements and advice or I wouldn't be here  http://www.turbonator.com/WhatIsIt.html Thanks in advance, John

Re: Opinions please..
NO. If anything, its more of an impedance than a helper.
