Re: tornado powerbooster
Go buy a little hand held fan, tape it to your rear bumper, it'll do more good than the tornado powerbooster.

Re: tornado powerbooster
yea, doesn't do anything but cause a restriction in your intake. they claim it creates a vortex effect into the intake, but you lose so much flow trying to create the vortex that it is counter-productive.

Re: tornado powerbooster
not a problem. Have you done the 2* advance yet? It gives you a little more HP and torque on the low end. I know there are a lot of guys on this site that will usually do it for free if you go to a meet. They have the software and programs to advance your timing 2*. Some stealerships will do it for free too if you rub shoulders with the right tech's.

Re: tornado powerbooster
Don't forget the stickers! A few strategically placed stickers can really boost the horsepower...

Re: tornado powerbooster
Save your money for more important things like some swamp land I've got for sale in Florida,just send your check to Mr Nissan Mike.
Seriously the whole Tornado Vortex and all the other additives and gimmicks have been debunked by several car magazines in the past.One thing to ask yourself is if you can get 10HP that easily,why aren't the manufauctrers doing it by now?
