Got me -- cuz they got money to burn? I'm smarter than to throw money at products that don't do anything. Listening to the guy who makes it obviously gives you a biased opinion. There's LOTS more real-world advice against snake oils like the Tornado.

Prove to yourself that the Tornado doesn't work. Put a vacuum gauge on your intake tube, between the throttle body and the air filter. Mount the gauge so you can see it while you drive and check it out. Most likely, you'll have very little vacuum, even at WOT, meaning there's no restriction in your intake tube. This is why K&N filters sometimes don't give much of an improvement on some vehicles -- there's no restriction to begin with, so there's nothing to improve. Do the research yourself and prove it to yourself -- you got nothing to lose (but 70 bucks with the Tornado).
