Product increases gas mileage?
 

This product claims to increase gas mileage up to 31% and horsepower up to 35%. Anybody have any info on this product? I'm calling b.s.

Yah that is BS, also known as the "Tornado". Oddly enough there are ads for this piece of crap in Road&Track.


Write up telling what a POS it is:

Good to know. Thanks for the info.

I didn't know they were still trying to sell these things. They do not do a thing, if they did car manufactures would spend the 50 cents per vehical to install them at the factory.

Ok, let's think this through logically. If this product could actually increase gas mileage up to 31% and horsepower up to 35%, don't you think the auto manufacturers across the world would be adding this $15 part (and a small fraction of that if they were producing in volume) to all their vehicles in the blink of an eye?

Keep your money in your pocket. And you if really want to spend it, make a donation to X5world instead. At least we'll give you some good information and entertainment for your $$ ! ;)

Sorry, all logic has been thrown out of the window after a late Saturday night. The product said that it would increase mpg UP to 31%, not to 31%. I really wanted to know if the product worked at all. If it did work, but only minimally, then no, the cost of purchasing and installing these devices may indicate more of a burden to car manufacturers than the benefit gained from installing them.

My check is in the mail UCrew :thumbup:

This was tested a few years ago on a dyno by a guy on the Explorer Forum. Total waste of time.

Last I heard they were packaging it together with this other item....

Do you really mean it is not working? You won't know it until you give it a shot.
Last time I tried the male enhancement pills off the internet, it literally gave me few inches and amazing girth. ;)

I find ballet slippers cost about the same and work better to decrease pressure on the gas pedal.
