Has anyone ever used the tornado in their truck 5.4, fuel savings and HP gains?

A consumer group did some extensive testing on the tornado and
other suposedly fuel saving and horse power gimmicks and found
that the tornado did nothing to increase fuel or horse power gains,
I would not suggest useing it unless you want to waste your money and if applictable void your warrenty, But then again its your choice.

If you already made the mistake of buying one, sell it on eBay, preferably to a Chevy owner.

The only performance gain I noticed is when I was on my way to return it.
