Anyone have any experperience with these type of devices?? Do they actually work

How much more horsepower/gas savings can I get?
By enhancing fuel atomization the Turbonator produces increased horsepower and fuel economy. An emissions lab, licensed by the EPA conducted tests on vortex generators that produced results as high as 20 horsepower and 24% increases in mileage. Other independently conducted studies yielded results as high as 35 HP and 31% MPG. Twenty and 35 HP boosts are not typical. Your results with the Turbonator will probably, but not necessarily, be less. Just keep this in mind. A Vortech Supercharger kit for a 2004 Mustang that produces 155 HP boost costs $5,139.95. The Price/Performance ratio is $5,139.95/155HP = $33.16/HP. It costs $33.16 for every one horsepower it produces. All the Turbonator has to give you to beat the Vortech supercharger in terms of it's price/performance ratio is 3 horsepower.?

This turbonator is just an electric fan. The way forced induction system work is that it COMPRESSes the air to make it more dense. Boost is a term used to tell how much pressure your induction system is producing over atmospheric pressure. If anything this fan probably reduces horsepower because the engine draws air a hell of a lot faster than you would think, and its in the way. Just search for "electric supercharger" and there are dozens of posts with better explainations.
