Thanks Drone,
That was the meat and potatos i was looking for! ;)
I figured it was crap.. but you never know.. might have been worth copying with some tin snips and sheet metal!

free is never a bad thing  8)

paying $40 for something like that is what makes it bad

now if you hook it up to the exaust or the belts it would be a super charger or a turbo. lol
Get a turbo!

Anything that increases turbulence will make a better fuel air mixture. most of this is junk though. And internal drag should be limited. Anything reducing flow reduces horsepower. Too free of flowing induction will not have enough flow at low end however and kills low end torque. I say pick up a cam, headers or a turbo, or even just a high flow filter. beyond that tin is cheap as are tin snips and if you found a good middle ground then all the better.

It's stationary anyway, it doesn't turn... it's SUPPOSED to cause the air to turn.... and thereby creating a "vortex"   BUT, it doesn't work... it's crap..

sorry for the misleading title.. i knew it didnt turn!  I was just making fun of what the intake "vortex" resembled.. as for attaching it to my belts.. that was also a bad attempt at humor!   :-[
