35 hp? for 69.99 Us.

I got linked to a product I believed named "THE TURBONATOR" from this site. It states a 20-35 hp gain when installed, and three units can be installed in the same car. What do you guys think? for 69.99, and 50% off additional purchasing it seems like a good deal.

I've heard of that and was gonna post it. Most likely it won't work. But for how cheap it is, maybe I'll give it a shot just to see. The stuff I've spent tons of $$ don't give more than a few hp anyway, so what's there to lose? I'm gonna check out their website and see what's up.

Don't I've tried it and never did a thing in my engine. I've got a D16Y8 and the Y8 head all ready has those thing's built in to it in the head just bafore the intake valve.
but I haven't tried it in the older ones yet. But I'm so sirius it really did nothing at all.

I've tried both intake's the stock one with it and the high performance one.
and for your info it's 2"7/8 in size (inner diametter). and nothing changed)
same gas mileage and didn't feel more either (but dyno style) and I've felt more a difference from advancing my timing then adding those to the intake.
and the intke I tried it on was a APC style one same as DC intake.

nox, here you go again with cheap power mods. I keep tellin you, they don't WORK! If it looks too good to be true, when it comes to cars it definitely is. Sheesh.

BTW keep your eyes glued to the set....there may be a certain 1.7EL rollin through a popular sports network's sport compact tuning show......if you're nice, i'll intro you to the owner, I hear he's a real stud...he he....

As for your possible show appearance, tape it so we all don't miss it
