Isn't the turbonator SUPPOSEDLY for gas mileage?

Anyway, there was a test done on all these "products" that claim to give you more hp and better gas mileage - they all lowered the HP except for one(i forget which)....but it didn't give better gas mileage, just increased the hp by like 1 or 2..........

So - IMO waste of time......and money....

If you don't want to do a turbo setup, save a little money and get a Nitrous Express wet kit.........easy installation and good hp.......just do a 75 shot and you'll be fine. There are people on here selling them for $400

For the cost of a "turbonator" you could buy 1,000 bottle rockets, duct tape them to the rear deck-lid, light 'em, and probably go faster than w/ a turbonator.
