Then what are you actually asking?

It is said the "spin the air to mix fuel better."

dont buy the electric csupercharger, it actually makes the air go in slower because it doesn't spin fast enough for the air.

i have it and noticed a big difference in low end torque and high end power.

car can now "chirp" on 4th gear.

also notice a slight increase in gas milege.

its also made of aircraft plastic, making it colder then those ebay tubes.</TD></TR></TABLE>

dosnt the obx throttlebody spacer thing have the same effect? and do those work, its worth the price if they make any difference.

yeah but thats way different than the cyclone crap. Leaf Blowers are Forcing Air into the intake, probably around 1 -1.5 PSI i would guess.

I'm feeling bs right .. here "car can now chirp on 4th gear." There is no way in hell some intake can up your preformance that much.

Im not too sure if i can actually believe that electric SC, the turbodyne thing or whatever.... well, i guess it at least looks like a turbo, and not a blower motor for your boat.

hahaha WTF I "chirped" 4th gear one time in my ****-slow 1989 base model Camry 5-speed. In no way does that indicate a performance increase. Hell a stronger clutch can make that possible.

yeha i chirp 6th gear in my 98 GSR, yeah thats right i dont even have a 6th gear... buddy give us some details of ur engine. a simple intake that sucks air will not create that kind of performance. If this was soo, people wouldnt spend 3 grand on a turbo setup, theyd spend 200 on an intake.
