E Dawg Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 I was recently watching an info-mercial and I saw an add for "The Tornado fuel saver". It claims that by adding their product to the air intake that you get better fuel efficiency along with an increase in h.p. It creates some air vortex, which makes what they claim, possible. Is this thing for real? Anyone out there try this on his or her vehicle and if so what was the results?
steviej Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 IT'S CRAP. If it were that good, they wouldn't need an informercial to sell it. Don't waste your money. Regular maint. of oil (synthetic) and filter(s) will achieve the same. sj
gslx4s Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 Save your mony, this type of things normaly do not work. If they did work as well as the manufacture states, then Auto manufactures would have them as std. items. Save your $$ IMO
MrSypher Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 Definitely something you shouldn't even waste a dollar on......
E Dawg Posted July 8, 2003 Author Posted July 8, 2003 I saw the info-mercial over a month ago but I recently saw it again. I hadn't intended on wasting my money I wanted to know if anyone did and if so what were the results. I know someone out there tried it but is ashamed to say. Come on fess up. :D I admit I am not satisfied with the GS3 power :( or lack there of but I won't throw just anything into my ride. I thought about the GS430 and if I do not like the next gen GSeries then I will get the now current 430.
SKperformance Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 the tornado is junk as stated i had a friend who sold it in his performance shop and he even told me it is just a gimmick it rotates air there by reducing turbulances for combustion only problem there are many openings and the throttle plate to block a twisting flow which would only create more turbulance since it would be spinning also the stupid demo they have of the chinese guy and the water bottles showing how it doesn't let water flow natually untill he starts a tornado action it is only because the water is now swirling it leaves a little gap in the middle for the air to get by thus not causing the air to bubble up from the water
bluelex Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 i agree with the other members, not needed and not worth the money imo.. just get quality gas,oil and filters and u'll b fine..
