Celica Forums General Discussion Engine and Performance Anyone ever try this?

Has anyone ever tried that tornado fuel saver. I talked to the guy at pep-boys and he told me it worked, but just to make sure i went to my toyota dealer and they said the same thing, anyone have any feedback, they say it save fuel up to 28% and add up to 13hp.

Dude - the "guy at pep-boys" is making $7.00 an hour. Enough said.

well if you would have read further in my question, it says the guy from toyota told me the same thing

just say "no!"

it works. The HP gaine varies on the car, the gains tend to get higher on larger engines v6,v8 etc. So dont expect to notice much, but its definitly good for your car and it does save ALOT of gas. Ive done a little research on it myself. Check it out and get back to us. Its not some BS supercharger wanna b product like you see on ebay for 40 bucks. It does exactly what it says. With a celica, im guessing 3-4 hp gain(the most). But i repeat, it will DEFINTLY save fuel. So good luck and dont forget to post some updates if you do eventually get this.

thanks, i'll post updates after i get it installed

By the way how much is it?

What about that fuel saver that Korean guy invented? I think he was Korean, i'll say Asian for safe measure.

Probably a Ben and some change. Wouldn't be really expensive.

Where do you find the tornado fuel saver thing at?

to those of you that say it works... explain something to me...


the whole 'genious' behind the tornado is that it spins the air going into the intake manifould...

but here's where the problem is... our throttle plate is flat, and when you floor it or drive normally, its gonna stop the spinning air from spinning... the spinning air caused by the tornado is going to be hitting a wall basically...

I like how on the infomercial they show that god damn tornado in the 2 2-Liter bottles. How the fuck is that supposed to explain anything? They didn't even use that Tornado thing to make the tornado.


I can't people actually believe this stuff.

"Dyno testing shows 4 to13 added horsepower as well!"... Wow, that's more than my Injen CAI!!! GOOD DEAL!! We should do a group buy!!!

bs

if dyno shows atleast 4 hp gain then why dont you believe it ??? explain to me i think its pretty good and it saves gas

in the shop shop near my place called hottint is gonna put on of those in my cold air intake they said could make really good gains, ford escort dynoed 20whp at 45 with cold air and tornado.

i dont think the tornado works on our cars, its cyclinder shape would not fit in our airbox

hmm...i dont care for the HP gain, all i want is something that will give me better economy.

yes i know that the Celica has a good MPG rating to begin with.

comedy central right here...

here it one of them useing it on the celica gt

funny video

nonetheless I'll take it as a compliment that they chose a Celica as the import. "Hey those Celica owners must know what they are doing, not like all those Honda ricers."
