true or false: the tubonator???????
If this has already been discussed close thread. Now, there are 2 different products (original & ebay), but i don't know if i believe either of them. For those that don't know, this "turbonator" is supposed to increase gas mileage as well as Hp. I have had 2 friends that say they work (the original product). Has anyone seen this on myth busters or had hands on experience with the product itself?
Here's the original and what they have to say:
The Turbonator is much less expensive and more efficient than any turbocharger, supercharger, blower, or intercooler. Its superior design can increase horsepower and the Turbonator's performance is backed with a 120-day money back guarantee.
More Power: Are you looking for more power from your wheels? Whether you have a stock or aftermarket intake system, the Turbonator can add up to 35 horsepower to your vehicle.*
Fuel Savings : Turbonator users have reported MPG increases from 10 to 22 percent. Results will vary depending on your driving habits and the condition of your vehicle.
Easy To Install : 5 minutes and a screwdriver is all it takes. Anyone can do it.

I always presumed it did the same thing as the VORTEC heads on GM products, swirls the intake charge for better combustion but I don't believe that certain product is anywhere as advanced as a set of VORTEC heads.

I really think that it's just a remix to that tornado crap that blows apart under hard suction. This is just a different design with stronger blades and is mounted after your filter and not in front of the throttle body.
