Well...from what I've heard...they don't work worth ****. A friend of my dad's saw a CONSISTENT decrease in 1mpg, and noticed NO power gains. In my opinion...I bet they slow air more than spin it...it's just another thing in the way for the air to work around to get into the engine...I think it's a good theory, but a poor attempt at proving it. Don't waste your money.

I like the satisfying crunch when you take that first bite out of a nice crisp apple.
