Question Opinions Please

I have a 97 Ranger 2.3

Is this worth it?

<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=bottom align=left> HELIX</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=bottom align=left>POWER TOWER THROTTLE BODY SPACER
  • [*]
Added height plus the unique HELIX spiral flow design combine to create an airflow vortex that dramatically improves fuel atomization. The results: more horsepower, greatly increased torque and improved fuel economy. Easy to install. Works with any fuel. HELIX will not affect emissions testing</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Found it on J. C. Whitney

Thanks

Bill

It'll help preformance, mainly because your
wallet is lighter...

If these gadgets actually worked, do you
think the factory would install them?? Think
about it for a few minutes, the factory is looking
for every drop of fuel economy/power it can wring
out of every engine they produce, so if these toys
realy and truely worked, you wouldn't need to buy
one from JC Whitless, they'd be stock from the
factory...
