PERFORMANCE BOOSTER
  • Designed to burn fuel cleaner, faster and more completely for greater power and fuel economy
  • Increase gas mileage 7% to 24%, gain a 4- to 13-HP increase!
  • Stainless steel booster installs easily inside the air intake hose of electronically fuel-injected vehicles
  • Creates a swirling motion forcing air around corners and bends and through intakes
Since air is the main component in the combustion process, this mini whirlwind results in the best fuel atomization possible. Tests prove it! The Tornado® increases gas mileage from 7% to 24% (figures confirmed by road tests performed by an emission lab licensed by EPA/CARB). Dyno testing shows a big boost in horsepower-4-HP to 13-HP gain. Maintenance free-no moving parts to wear out. Manufacturer's lifetime warranty.

To order proper size:

For Carburetor/EFI Type: (1) remove air inlet hose located between throttle body and air filter box; (2) measure inside diameter (ID) of hose; match measurement with corresponding ID given.

For Carburetor/TBI Type: (1) lift top off to expose the air filter element; (2) line up a straight edge along top of air cleaner element at center and measure height at point "A", 3-1/2" from center stud. "A" is distance from air cleaner base to bottom of straight edge.

NOTE: Most 1987-1997 Ford cars, trucks and vans with 4.9L, 5.0L, 5.8L and 7.5L engines have 2 air intake hoses; therefore, 2 Tornado® boosters are required for these applications only.

Pros: i think it works :0)
Cons: to much buck for the bang
"I have this product in a 94 Z28 LT1 and my 97 Dakota 318.
This product is way to expensive for it's gain. I bet most people that added this also added a K&N air filter and that was the increase gain. For $69 you can upgrade your ECU module from G-force.
I added tornado product last and noticed no gains...
The same increase can be reached by opening up your vehicles intake. No tricks. 10% increase. Rip out the mass air flow filter. Not needed. Been running truck for 10 years and no problems. Car also. Why do you need a mesh filter after the air filter,, not needed. My camaro gets 30+ mpgs rated at 21. Go figure that one. Truck gets 18-21,, rated at 14 mpg.
Both vehicles have jet chip pcm upgrades, i think the g-force will work just as well. Ram air and exhaust. No motor mods.
Let more air in and more air out and bang more power. Gee I wonder why no one ever mentions that simple little trick.
VW jetta drive now,, ripped out the cold air inlet so it stops letting warm air from the engine and a g-force ecu upgrade. It went from a decent 31 mpg to 37-38 mpg. (2.5 L gas)
Now you can all send me $50 for my 2 cents worth :0)

Will help Improve MPG

By JKT1977
from MA
Pros: Easy to instal an remove
Cons: none that ive seen
"Ive seen an used this Product in multiple vehiles. From a 2005 chevy avalanche, 2007 chevy tahoe, 1995 ford taurus. with each vehicle an tornado (as there not interchangeable between various vehicles due to intake size differences). All cars Ive seen an used this on Ive noticed atleast a 5-10MPG addition. Im sure some will an have had problems with this.
But you have to take everything into account, as adding one thing cant improve your vehicles performance if theres other thing Impeading performance.

Leaned out my engine
November 6, 2011
By AB CA
from ALberta
Pros: easy to install
Cons: Set off check engine light
"I installed this on my 2008 Explorer Sport Trac with 4.0 V6.
It did increase the fuel mileage, but as soon as I drove into higher elevations through the mountains, the check engine light came on. My OBD code reader showed the engine was leaning out too much. I removed it and have had no further problems

Pros: Bottom end much better now from a take off.
Cons: I think it could be made at home. Expected a different product.
"Overall I am glad I purchased this. I still use it today and will continue to do so. I have thrown my money out on other things so this was a gamble. Works well for me. I think it could work well in some vehicles and not so well in others. Don't expect miracles."
