Default Finally found a way to get 31% better gas mileage.

AHAHAHAHHHA. I mean I've seen some "vortex generators" that would at least look good enough for a dumbass to buy it, but this? LOL. Its a .25 cent piece of aluminum that he is charging 17 bucks for. I don't even want to put something like that anywhere near my intake path, imagine if that made its way into the intake path. lmao.

"Smoother Shifting: Vehicles with an Automatic Transmission will shift smoother than before"
LMFAO, wtf does your intake path have to do with smoother shifts?<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Better-Gas-Mileage-Audi-TT-A4-S4-A6-A8-MPG_W0QQitemZ8059865930QQcategoryZ42604QQrdZ1QQcmd ZViewItem">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Better-Gas-Mileage-Audi-TT-A4-S4-A6-A8-MPG_W0QQitemZ8059865930QQcategor

Default I decided to write them an email using your term for their product, LOL.

"Are you guys serious with this stuff? A 50 cent piece of metal with a couple of folds in it for 17 dollars and you say it gives better gas mileage? I know some Americans are dumb but come on, that is just absolutely hilarious. I might as well just goto the supermarket and pick up some cookie cutters and put them into my intake. If I do that I'll probably gain another 30-40hp and 20+ mpg. LOL, seriously guys, please tell me you don't honestly believe in that piece of scrap metal?"

I'm curious to see what response I get, if one at all.

Default I think somebody tried the same design/concept a few years ago

only to have it break into pieces and be sucked into the engine.

It was made of plastic before if I'm not mistaken.

...complete morons
