Im waiting for the E-bay auction with the rocket mounted on the bikeracks, its about the only thing that will help. I remember for my mustang reading the speedshop ads good for 5-10 h.p. here , 3-8 h.p. there etc... when i added them all up it was like 80+ hp. without any intake or engine mods there so full of S#@T.the XB really needs at least another 30 h.p to be remotely , shall I dare say- quick. Lets face it almost all cars are putting out 200+h.p. these days so it doesnt really matter what i do to mine the turbo /s,charger is the only thing worth doing all else is a waste of time. I do like the sound of my intake and exaust it a least it makes me feel like im driving fast.

they do work.. all it is a resistor, that retards your air/fuel mixture basically leaning out your motor.. the problem is mostly after about 10min of running it, the computer will realize its there and fix it... so it only works for 10 min or so.. waste of money.. I'm not too sure on how good it can be for your motor to be leaning it out anyways.. randode has a buddy who has one on a switch, and turns it on when he needs the extra HP...

If you know anyone that's interested in that I can sell them a Tornado for their intake pipe too.

DUDE THOSE TORNADO THINGS ARE TIGHT..

I seriously hope that people do realize that the tornado thing was designed for boat motors though. :lol:

Those things don't cost anything to make. You can ask the guy if he has sold any and tell him you'll give em up to $8 coz it cost less than $3 to make.

Is it just a resistor?

dont buy anything from that _______... thats not even a real company. he sends them out with his name on the ENVELOPE, not even a package mind you. its a resistor inside that black container and some THICK ___ wires connected to it... i could build a bike frame out of the wiring alone its so god damn big. anyways, i'm still waiting for a refund. guys retarded. don't bother asking him anything.
