Hi Chaps. I like cheap gadgets which work - has anybody ever tried one of these from the US? The claim is: - The Turbonator is a non-moving vortex generator that goes inside your air intake hose, right after your air filter.
How does it work?
The Turbonator's airflow dynamics can produce a swirling, fast-burn effect in the combustion chamber. This can create finer particles of atomized fuel, allowing better flame propagation and more complete combustion*. Sort of makes sense for petrol, but I am no mechanic, would it help with diesel? They claim increased mpg and up to 20% increased power - all for $49.94 each.
I'd interested in any comment before I waste my money. Graham

20% increase for $49, that's a lot of power for not a lot of money, can't help be very sceptical of these claims. I'm sure there are people who swear it works, but after parting with the cash I think you are almost brain washing yourself that it does work. I will keep my bucks in my pocket until it's conclusive thank you! Mind you those special growth pills for you no what are brilliant! Wink
