Default Anybody have an opinion about the turbonator?

So i was wondering if the turbonator works as good as it sounds. First of all it is really cheap but supposedly adds up to 35 horsepower. Should i buy one for my 96' civic?

when you have the turbonator and you hit the end of 3rd gear vtec at 88mph, you start seeing lightning, thunder, and other flashes and you go back to the year 1955.

i personally havent tried it but i heard stories...
