Yeah, get it! It adds like 50 hp. If you have it paired with a big aluminum wing and neons, you will get another 20 hp out of it.

A search will show multiple threads discussing the utter paperweight ludacrisy of all these products. They ALL drain horsepower. A turbo spools off of your exhaust gas, and forces air down your intake, a turbonator (while it has an intimidating name) "spools" if you could call it that, more like spins, off of the vacuum of your intake. Imagine if you had a metal pinwheel on your mouth, and everytime you inhaled you would have to suck extra hard to spin this pinwheel. That is why these products are the worst scam since dental floss (you know its true, you dont use it). Avoiding mentioning these products in anything but a joke, will help your HT rep immensely, as I am scoffing at you at a rate reserved for the movie Brokeback Mountain. And while I am not calling you a gay cowboy, I am merely suggesting you are close.

this is my favorite "Yes, in Fuel Injection/E.F.I. vehicles, up to three Turbonator's have been installed by automotive enthusiasts that race their vehicles."

LOL. The only turbo feel this guy had was the lag portion.
