Found an interesting part on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevy-Cavalier-Gas-Saver-94-95-96-97-98-99-00-01-02-03_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ42604QQitemZ8074715756QQrdZ1
This device claims to save gas and increase HP by forcing the air to spiral into the intake. Google search on FloBlade produces nothing. Is this legit or someone trying to make a quick buck?
From the bid page:
"The FloBlade creates a vortex of air in your car’s intake tract, allowing more complete combusion [sic] of fuel, resulting in increased fuel efficiency and less money spent on gasoline! Tests have shown that the FloBlade can increase fuel economy by up to 33%, and can add up to 20 additional horsepower!
5 MINUTE INSTALLATION.
YEARS OF SAVINGS.
Installation is simple – simply place the FloBlade in your car’s intake tube and it holds itself in place forever. There are NO electrical wires, NO moving parts, and installation can usually be completed in 5 minutes using only a screwdriver! Comes with complete detailed instructions."

It's a scam just like the tornado.
dont beleive the hype. if anything like that worked wouldnt auto manufacturers who have to meet CAFE standards in there cars be at all interested in a 33% fuel economy increase.
15.4 @ 89mph
Yeah, first thing that clued me that it was a scam was not being able to find any information on it on the "real" internet. Second clue was that you just put this thing in your intake with no tools whatsoever and "presto!" 20HP gain.
Thanks for confirming that.
