Has anyone installed a "Tornado", they are suppose to create a swirling motion forcing air around corners and bends and through intakes, and there for increase gas mileage 7% to 24%, gain a 4- to 13-HP increase. If anyone has, have you noticed anything? http://order.tornadoair.com:1088/jcwhitn...mp;model=CELICA [ order.tornadoair.com]

This really belongs in Custom Modifications forum. Also there are several threads on this Tornado air thing if you search for them ![smile smile](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/smile.gif) To sum it up, they don't work ![smile smile](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/smile.gif)
Why settle for a lesser evil, Cthulhu awaits....

how can air spin before your throttle body...pas through your throttle body (which isn't just a hole) and go in your engine. THey dont work cause they hut the plate that moves in your throttle body.
