Re: Does the Tornado Fuel Saver Work?

yes, it saves as much fuel as my lead foot does under full boost.



best bang for the buck, and you may want to find an experienced shop to install it for you, labor might be pricey though. Oh at the same time, why don't you go get a Woo WOOOOOOOOOOO exhaust... I heard that the whistling indicates an excellent air fuel mixture. The louder the whistle... the more power you're making, it's mad tight yo.
