Now I know you guys have heard of the Tornado fuel saving thing. Okay, for me it doesn't seem to make much sense on a fuel injected car but possibly I believe it would make more sense on a carbureted car. Just because of the way the air enters the carburetor and into the engine. It seems to make more sense on a car with a carb has anyone tried this on a car like that?

I would be curious to see a real dyno test by one of our members/vendors for one of those tornado thingies.
you know just to see if anything at all happens, besides making your wallet lighter :)

well i'd never buy one... if they really worked all the manufacturers would be using them to get better MPG on their gas hogs.

If the power of a TORNADO could be harnessed to do any good,
do you think we would be buying SUPERCHARGERS ???

Price of a Tornado $19.95
Price of a Lamborghini Murcielago $279,900.00

Installing a Tornado into a Murcielago and getting the mileage of a Honda Insight...
PRICELESS :rofl:
