tornado Trick to increase performance

[darkdan]

WHOA! I missed the magic elixir? Where can I get it?

Hey, I haven't made my judgement on FP yet. I'm only on the 3rd tankful. First tankful the mpg went up by .9 over the average. The 2nd tankful went down by .4 under the average. I haven't checked the mpg on this tank yet.

AutoRX I haven't passed judgement on yet because I'm only halfway through it. I'll know if it works because I'll rip off my valve cover.

However....where can I get the magic elixir?

If anyone else has anything they'd like to test, let me know. I've got a 1994 Aspire that gets 33.3 mpg on average now. Send me one of your fancy smancy CPU fan turbo chargers. I'll give it a try and report back the MPG gain or loss.

"I got 15% increase and feels accelator pedal sensitive...more or less 15% increase in gas mileage and performance in pick up..."

That ain't nuthin', Patel. The BEST way to utilize the Tornado principal is to simply drive your car/truck directly into the path of an F5 tornado. Vehicle speeds of up to 250 mph have been achieved by using such revolutionary technology! And no underhood modifications are required, with no warranty compliance issues for that matter.

Nice to read reply from you guys. I can know HOW good or bad about my HOME INVENTED TRICK. But Many of you notice the shape of intake body at engine side. Splitted in half and taper towards edge ROUND shape. I will post photo of my chevy venture.
I tried to power CPU fan but CAR sometimes shut off while waiting signal from red to green.
ANYWAY, This is my IDEA and I had small clip for FORD ranger HOW THIS FAN is effective with ENGINE RPM drop atleast 50 or 75 RPM when IDELING. I don't wanna be rich unless you want to help me to be rich ..........
THIS is just a TRICK.....

Seriously, you DID NOT get a 15% increase in mileage on any of those cars. That is 100% impossible. If you did and you can prove it I'll give you $50,000.

They use turbine engine by rotating air.

turbine engines do not spin the air, the compress it. the internals of the engine do their best to straighten it with stator vanes.

mazda also uses a "variable tumble control system" like subaru to boost low end performance, it doesn't attempt to spin the air though.
the only performace gain from this is you wallet being lighter from the money you spent on it. lighter weight = more effeciency right?

Anything placed in the intake path adds a resistance that the engine must expend power to overcome. For the Tornado to work, the Laws of Thermodynamics must be in error. I wish they were, then a perpetual motion machine that converts energy into power without losses (heat) would be possible.

Somebody beat you to it. At least the price is down from before.

eBay Electric Supercharger for $49.99.

Boat Bilge Exhaust Fan at West Marine for $29.99.

What about a big blow dryer? Then you get all that incredible boost AND faster warm up time. Great for the guys up north!!
