It's a great way to get water out of a 2 litre bottle

Default Have you tried one in each tailpipe also? Triple the increase/savings!

AMAZING isn't it what folks sell...and buy!

3 times zero is still zero!

There's no free lunch.

Default it will work if...

you cut your runners off your manifold plenum, install 1 mini vortech tornado whatever tingy in the inlet of each manifold a few inches before the fuel injector, then weld the runners back.

Any other location, don't bother. Manufacturers make intake stuff with some turbulence already designed in.

Default I don't recommend that if you don't have 2 tailpipes, one on each side of the car...

Otherwise, the car may spin and topple over ;P

Default On the other hand, with a 180...

the thrust from the left (only) tailpipe might offset the extra left side load from a hefty driver like me. No more pull to the left under boost conditions!

Hmmm...vectored thrust?

Be sure to get the US (counterclockwise) version, otherewise you lose MPG.
