Default Tornado Air Management

I don't know if any of you have ever heard of the Tornado Air Management system, but I got one for my 97 Tibby and there was a noticable power difference from what I had before. Just thought I would let you guys know about this product cause it really does work. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

isn't that a thing that goes in the intake piping and spins as the air goes in?
CAR&DRIVER tested and showed ABSOLUTELY NO POWER GAIN but maybe it's not the same one

I love my Tib

I put one on my 94 excel. It was the most inexpensive mod done with the best performance. 3 things I noticed:

1, On a street at a certain point I could get up to 62 MPH without it. After installing over the same distance I could achieve 70 MPH (i think that is pretty good).

2, Before install 41 MPG after install 48 MPG.

3, the car ran smoother, what the engine had sounded like at 5,000 RPM's now had the same loudness at 6,000 RPM's.

I was very pleased with this mod. Purchased one for my 2000, but it is too big. I think it was one for the earlier Accent models! However, I think it will fit into my CAI.
