Default Vortex Generator
I thought about installing a Vortex Generator into the air inlet of my car. Will this really improve the performance? Any thoughts or advice?<ul><li><a href="http://www.turbonator.com/index.html">http://www.turbonator.com/index.html</a</li></ul>

Default Don't you think if car mfgs could get the results they claim with $0.13 of sheet metal...
...in the intake that cars would have them from the factory?

It's all garbage.

Default Actually
Marvel isn't bad stuff, But you need to know what to use it for and when. It's just detergent and Benzene as a solvent in mineral oil.

It'll clean sludge out of an older engine, but for a newer engine where the oil has been changed regularly or that's had sunthetic for the most part, it isn't necessary.

Quite a few others are worthless though.
