it's junk.

 

It's a wonderful device.....

FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!!!!!!!

(I'm starting to think I should FAQ this question...)

hey chris wazzzz up bro... thanks for the reply...why do you think it's junk... I've seen the dyno test... I dunno, I guess I'm trying to go for cheap increase....

dyno test? i've never seen one... all i know is that a few of my very rich friends (that have a lotta cash to blow) bought them and told me that they are completely useless. i figured that's enough proof for me... no need for a dyno.

and there is a consensus that the Tornado or whatever they like to call it these days is junk... don't waste your money.

 

I have to agree. The tornado is more a concept than anything. You'll be much happier with a Injen or AEM CAI.

 

Totally bogus product. There have been magazine tests done that show zero (0) gains. Don't waste your money.....

P.S. - Chod, maybe you should faq it......

 

If u really really really want it, buy a CAI and add the tornado.

 

Whats up guys, and ladies? Thanks for all your input.. I guess I can live with the extra noise from the CAI and hopefully I can get what I want from it....

 

You can buy a dragon filter and actually have a useable velocity stack....which is what the tornado is suppose to do...increase velocity...but when you put it in the intake piping....if not flush with the pipe...it will create more turbulence than velocity.

 

It was dynod on a 540i 6-Speed before, no change in power, also tested for increased MPG, none reported.

 

hey how much more noise does the CAI makes compare to the actuator noise.. I'm kind'a getting too old for this rice rocket sounding business.....

It's makes a lot more noise than the actuator. But you'll never you know you have it till you hit higher rpms. It doesn't really sound ricey to me. It's more of a deeper, meaty sound especially when the VTEC kicks in. I really like it and it deters many would be racers!

 

Oh hell yea. But u never notice it untill u gun-it.

Me I like to have my CLS back at other cars. Doin 40 as I coast next to them in SS Second, feathering the gas. The BAMB, pedal to teh floor and WOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRR .
