Negative on that......after cutting one of these truck intake manifolds in two, you see that there really isn't any way it works. Inside the intake, the air goes through a long narrow tube before it drops into the cylinders. No way the swirling motion would last long enough to do any real seat of the pants difference. I bought one, and still have one on my truck. I was suckered into buying one years ago before I had seen the inside of the intake.
On a side note....some people claim they get power from them. Regardless of its dyno proven or simply in a person's head, whatever makes you happy......
Technically, though, they shouldn't work with the design of the intake.
