so today im at autozone and this guy tries selling me out on this tornado thing that goes up in ur intake boot and its like curved and SUPPOSEDLY supposed to spin the air and create this tornado effect to make ur intake suck in alot more air than it already does. I can see HOW it can work but i dont kno its its worth the 60 bucks . He also told me you'll see improved gas milege and hp (5-10) but i didnt believe that shyt. What do u guys think??

 

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no get out dont ever post this crap!

 

Have you ever heard of stores trying to fool the ignorant to make a few bucks?

 

tell him to shove it up his *** and ask him if it increases the **** coming out of him!@#(*!@#

 

you better run like a tornado is coming!

i think if it were that easy to throw in more horsepower and make it more gas efficient the nissan engineers would of thought of it...

 

Or just smile politely

 

which cincy autozone was this??? i can't believe they even try to sell that garbage! maybe i'll go in and see what he has to say. 15% increase in mpg and hp? 20%...?

 

yeah, shove it up his assss and see if shyt comes out shaping like the tornado swirl.

those greedy god dammmed people better quit selling that shyt.

 

solidsnake.....it was the autozone is mason the one that is on the western row/route 42 intersection lol

 

Bah - too far away. I'd pass 10 AutoZones on the way to Mason! Maybe I'll stop in one of the NKY stores and **** with them.... feelin sinister

 

ummm yea for sure. It's almost like a turbo.

 

Yeah Tornado Air is such bull. It doesnt do sh#$, Its suppose to funnel the air through your throttle body, but I really think it doesnt work, so dont waste your time or money on it.

 

shiet like this makes the org look bad..

 

Wow.... Am I glad I saw this post , and to think I was going to spend $3500 for a supercharger one day when I could just put 10 of these inline and get the same effect! LOL I feel sorry for all those fools who bought superchargers and turbo's!

 

the thread preview got me to that, and I was hoping your next sentence was "so I pointed and laughed in his face and called his wife to tell her she married a f----g moron"

........... you let me down

 

 

if he that much of a moron what makes you think hes married

 

Have you been on the dating scene recently, holy crap...

We all have a chance.. all of us do

 

I hear the tornado actually works on some older vehicles, but I havn't seen any proof yet. Here is a guy with a beretta who tested it on the dyno:

When I used to frequent the 3rd gen forum MrGone had made a Tornado with a pop-can, he'd probably sell it to you for $35.99 if you want to try it out



Here's a guy on this forum who tested it and saw some small gains, no dyno info though:

Its a Quad 4, what do you expect, hes lucky his cylinder head didnt blow on the dyno....

 

i heard so many complaints and BS about that crap. if i saw that guy again if i were you, i would say that is the gayest thing ever made and is all BS. wonder if the guy tht was selling has it in his car.

 

do yourself a favor and put the $60 to better use

 

Here's some more info that says the things a farse, I like this one paragraph from it, they put a tornado in three different cars for people to test and here is what they said about the power:

How about the increase in power? All three drivers said they felt an increase in power after installing the Tornados. I put them back on the Dynamometer to see how much the power increased. We got the same horsepower readings on all three cars, no increase in horsepower. I asked the drivers why they said their cars had more power and they all said, "Well, it felt like it had more power."

Kind of reminds me of a few other "mods" that people make to their cars and they swear up and down that there's an increase in power. BTW here's that review:

That guy in Autozone was probably bored and bet one of the other workers that he could sell one of those stupid things that day. I'm glad you didn't buy one, yet...

 

Hey i got an idea. Give me the money i will put it to good use. Taking donations now.

 

I think you should also read the Mod FAQ's more

When you do let me know... Give me the money and I promise your car will "feel" faster too.

 

for $60, go buy yourself an intake off of ebay, or K&n filter, or so on.
spend you $ wisely

 

you're fired for posting this up. Read the FAQ's dood.
