Dude, wtf. Take it back, or throw it in the trash can. Do NOT put that garbage on your car.

I bought one for my truck Ka24e and noticed an increase in gas mileage and a little bit of power, not much at all, but noticable, and a good increase in gas mileage like I said, not sure that it was worth the 75bucks though

not worth it. its an obstruction that i would not want breaking (they have been known to do this) and causing engine problems.

^ maybe you should post something worthwhile instead of echoing the other members' comments. thats a good way to cast suspicion on yourself.

They don't work on anything other than a single barrel carb. Too many turns, and splits for the air to stay in a vortex. Plus the throttle body would defuse the vortex way before the fuel is added.

power has nothing to do with it.

i did you a favor by letting you know we watch people who have posting habits like yours closely on the grounds that they are usually abusing the system to gain access to the classifieds. those users have their post counts reset as warnings and are banned for continued violations.

you responded with an immature comment (ironic that you would try to use my choice of user names to insult me since i selected it for that reason in the first place ), and i let you know that you were on the road to a vacation from the site.

if i didnt ban you for acting like that (which i personally wouldnt, i feel like its a conflict of interests and an abuse of mod abilities to do so), someone else would in short order.

so now that i have spelled it out for you, i suggest you re-read the site guidelines you agreed to when you signed up here and abide by them if you wish to continue posting.

thanks.

I was a sucker for one of those electric superchargers too back in the day. I thought I was so cool cruising in my ford probe with its cut springs and fart pipe muffler. I wish I was still that cool
