Turbonator!

Hey guys, I was just wondering what your thoughts on the Turbonator are.
In therory I guess it could work,but has anyone had any postive/negative experiance with them? I dont really wanna waste 30 bucks, if it does nothing lol.

Even if it gave like 2mpg or something, it would still be worth it IMO

Save your money; gadgets like that have been proven to do nothing or even worsen your mileage. Same holds true for the tornado gadget.

Re: Turbonator!

Yep, tis be a waste of perfectly good metal. Any spin it puts into the air would be made void by the MAF screen....and taking out the MAF screen is a bad idea BTW.

Yup, magnets are included in the list for wasting your money. While we're on the subject, the "pill" is another one that's a waste of money.

Re: Turbonator!

If something like this was that easy and cheap to install, the factory would have been doing if for years it it actually worked. Everybody wants more fuel and more power...

Talking Re: Turbonator!

Wow, this is very disappointing news for me!
I was about to order the Turbonator, magnet and some pills for my car, to see if I could get 40 mpg, while turning some low 12’s in the ¼! I guess, I will have to wait for some other “miracle” to come out!
