Say what you will, but I want one of these, so does anyone know what bolt pattern will match ours?

umm... do u really belive that air that is spinning at TB is still spinning thru the manifold, the head, and down into the ports. AND while doing this is still creating a diffrence during combustion?? well enough to warrent the spending 80-100 or so bucks??

How are they allowed to false advertise like that I wonder and say they actually gain horsepower.

same with the 'MALE ECHANCEMENT DRUG" the whole BOB one. they owner just got arrested, and those commercials have been on for years. false advertisment is all around us. nothing to do but get used to it. unless its drug related, then they go after u, but at least they give u a few years to make millions so u can bail yourself out wink1.gif

as for cars, I do not know, but in big trucks, they actually made ice around the throttle body from the sucking. Its a restriction if the diameter of the inlet is not matched to the TB and IM, otherwise, from the sucking it makes, it cools the air. No it will not continue to spiral down through your IM and your head, and no, its not going to give you 50 horses. It is like the tornado, but I usually tend to believe things when I see trucking companies using them on their trucks and having to take them off because it created ice around it. I just want to see if it works on my tib. Call me what you will, but you never know until you try. If you want to bad mouth me, fine, but if i can get one for less then 20 $ why not? And yeah, 80-100 bucks is a bit much, but i know a few people at my speedshop who give me great deals... i got my catback from them for 250$ shipped and taxes included.
