Default Introducing "The Tornado" - device supposed to add horsepower

LOL, I'm up late...just saw an infomercial at 3 in the morning on this thing called Tornado. It's a little metal circular fin device that mounts in the intake pre-throttle body that spins the air or something. They were showing the guy on a dyno and it made 20 more hp after installing the stupid thing...haha, I don't believe it.

anyway, check it out for yourselves:

LMAO VTC. :D

I might be willing to dump $20 at it just for fun, but they want $70 for a piece of cut up sheet metal.

For $70 I can get two of those fuel line magnets that polarize the gas molecules! :D

Oh yeah, I just remembered...

For those of you who've seen the informercial ,you know.

Some old hag was saying "I have meeself a Geo metro, 3 cylinder car.. After adding the Tornado, the mechanic who put it in noticed soooo much more power that he came back to the shop with a police officer, got $180 ticket. The Tornado really made my car fast"......buhahahaha
