This is driving at 100kph, or 61mph for 85km.
If this is for real, i cant believe it.

the general premis is to increase the volume of air stored inside the manifold, thus raising hp. Same deal as the plenum spacer they make for the 350Z. the swirls are for better atomization of the air fuel mixture. It does work, unlike the tornado.
I'm pretty sure those are the Ace Precision TB spacers. They look identical

IMO, if the engine had a carburator, giving a swirl action to the incoming air could (MythBuster episode 2134) improve atomization. Air/fuel mix going through sharp turns in the intake tend to separate, and reduce atomization. The swirl could reduce that effect.
But, on the VQ, any air disruption will most probably reduce the air flow. There is a reason those CAI have a smooth bend. The aluminum foil wrap was a much better investment IMO.
