SpiralMax.. Does it really work or is it a scam?

i was flipping through an issuge of super street magazine and saw an ad for this product.

http://www.spiralmax.com/index6.htm

i ended up looking at the website, since the place was in my area. It looks to be the same type of technology that chevy uses for the vortec, "installed in the air path, that extends the resident time between gas and air, maximizing vaporization for better combustion. It's beneficial for the engine, and is compatible and enhances the performance of all common aftermarket products, it is synergistic." ... what do you guys think about this product? my buddy said his friend has one and it works well im not so sure tho.. the site does look pretty cheap and corny..

might sound retarded as hell but just imagine sucking air through a big straw... then sticking a little twirling thing in it and try to suck through that. You could still suck air through but it wouldnt be as free flow, little hurricane or what ever it makes wont help you there

save the money for something that will actually get you some HP

you can always buy a DOHC VTEC sticker and pretend your car has a DOHC and not a SOHC

I can't believe they are still being advertised in magazines. It's a scam.

lol that reminds me of this guy at my school. hes got like an 86 or sum year around there honda accord and it got a kit and an exhaust tip i believe i really doubt he has a full catback. well his year accord didnt come w/ dohc or vtec .. or both its one of those but he bought the stickers and put them on his car ... its kinda funny when you ask him about it he just kind of tries say he got it from a japanese dealer and thats why it has the sticker ... ya i rambled on for awhile sry just wanted to share the story : )
