tornado

well i was watching two guys garage and they were talking about this thing called a tornado. it is suposed to act kind of like a turbine in your intake by spinning the air and increasing the amount of air flow. i was wondering if anybody had tried this. it is suposed to give you better gas mileage and it says on the website www.tornadoair.com that it works extremely well in cars with aftermarket intakes. you can pick it up at your local parts store but for over 60 bucks i wanted to know what some other peoples experience was.

our excursion had 10.0 mpg straight from the dealer. We added an K&N Intake and it jumped to 11.2mpg. recently, we added an overprice scrap of metal called the tornado and now we have 11.4mpg
