Vortex Generator

Hey everyone. Tell me everything you know about this:

It's so cheap. Why not try it, right? Unless someone on here gives me legitimate information on why it's a waste of money, I'd like to atleast try it.

 

i call bs

if your not going to get 31 hp out of such mods as an exhaust that actually let the exhaust gases flow better whats a bit of twirling air gonna do?

it wont mix better, it wont atomize better it does nothing to help, if anything it restricts it. save your $8

but please prove me wrong. if this actually works, ill spend $8 on this

 

Total gimmick. Looks like it will produce more drag than anything else. And if you have the V-6, look at the path the air travels to get to the motor:

The directions say to "install after the air filter", from there, the air makes two sharp turns, pass through the throttle body, then makes at least two more turns before it gets to the cylinders. I'm no rocket surgeon but by this point any vortex is surely discombobulated.

 

That's the same drop in piece of metal as the "Tornado gas saver". I've only heard one person say they actually felt any increase in power and even that was negligible. Just search for Tornado gas saver on google and look at all the reviews for it. The "vortex" it creates, if it does at all, is most likely turned into a straight stream of air like it would be anyway when it gets to the intake manifold. It's your money though.

 

I have this! I get 100 mpg and 350 hp! Amazing!

 

No but really I remember this exact product being discussed in a corolla forum back in 2007... total bs

 

lol, you would have to be living under a rock to believe something like this actually works. Wouldn't your car manufacturer put this in your car already if it really works?

 

Dont listen to those people I have 6 of them installed (one for each cylinder) and my truck is so fuel efficient that runs on hot air

 

i had this in my saturn... it did work.. gave me almost 2mpg.. then i traded the saturn for my hemi ram.. no improvement.. i threw it in the trash.
