I always go on the basis that if your not told what it actually is and there is only one little crappy picture of it than its going to be complete rubbish. This one has been talked about a number of times on here though......

Well i've just bought 1 and i'm going to fit it to my dad's Daewoo matiz.

I'll let you all know if there are any gains(VERY much needed on the matiz..).

If it turns out to be a crock of shiyte i'm sending it back for a refund.

I think these are just passive fan blades that sit in the intake airflow. They make up some balls about them turbulating the air or somesuch, but all it does is block airflow into the engine.

 

A similar effect can be had from gaffer taping a kids' windmill to the airbox.

:lol: exactly, the engine will suck air faster than what the electric motor will provide anyway...

I know a guy who has one of these.

 

There is no difference. In his head there is, but basic physics says that this is utter utter bollocks.

 

I told him that. He was not amused.
