ChrisSZ Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Dave, all that will do is cause an obstruction and reduce air flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Yeah, probably is snake oil, the theory behind it is shakey, BUT it would be interesting to see if it actually makes ANY difference... Would be worth getting one and sticking it on a dyno before and after, just to see..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSupra Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I've actually seen one of these on a friends car - it's a fookin joke - basically a bit of metal that's been cut and bended in random locations, not using any kind of special equipment, and is quite sharp on the edges. They should be sued for false advertising, not to mention I bet a few people have cut their hands while fitting this amazing device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 didnt an independant test find they REDUCED the power on an MR2 Turbo?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSupra Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 didnt an independant test find they REDUCED the power on an MR2 Turbo?! Wouldn't surprise me mate. After all, it creates an obstruction for the airflow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 well lets face it, if it were that easy why would manufacturers and car tuners spend literally millions trying to make engines work better... it will just introduce restriction and at best it will work nearly as good as before, at worst it will be quite a lot worse. what a joke lol save your money!
