The Turbonator is a non-moving vortex generator that goes inside your air intake hose, right after your air filter

yes there is plenty of these scam jobs. do a search for tornado fuel saver, fuel magnet. they just give you a placebo(SP) effect while removing cash from your wallet. you can go buy 30 gallons of gas for what that costs.
