Default Turbonator any good? Anybody use one with good results?

As you can see I am looking at mods for my car for some HP gain, already have a borla exhaust, now looking to add voltage regultor and a nice working air intake system, but how about adding one of those "turbonators" to the mods, anybody try these? Do they really work as advertised?

I'll send you my Injen intake box for $100. The intake adds 6hp, and retails for over $200! And it's brand new!

don't waste your money on the turbonator.

I'm working on something that will guarantee +90 hp, +95 lb/ft torque, and improves gas mileage by 84.6%. And like all reputable products, I'll only sell it through ebay and infomercials.

More horsepower, better fuel economy, weird crappy website, a 12 year old girl that installs it, hmm might the next big thing in modding cars or just another ripoff to make someone money. The funny thing is they actually will make a decent amount.
