If it worked...don't you think you'd hear people talk about them all the time...
Or see them at dealerships...

no way will a piece of plastic in your intake will increase gas mileage...

to answer your question...they are fake...

it just creates a vortex of air to circulate..nothing major will come from it but the air will vortex causeing more airflow and "cooler air" from the circulation
as for gas milage...no way. thats BS if i ever heard
not worth the money they are asking.
maybe make it yourself for $10 at hardware store

do you think any real time air induction would be called the TURBONATOR? especially if they say its a supercharger and not a turbo, or a nator. BS
