VortexValve Anyone?

I was wondering if anyone has put a VortexValve in their V10?
Would any engineers care to explain how it would or would not work?

Thanks for the input!

I'm tempted to remove this thread, just because it's been asked so many times, and we get so animated about it.

It won't help.

I editted your post to remove the direct link to their website.

All the work people do to increase flow into the intake and this company makes money selling what is basically a baffle.

I guess it does work, because at wide-open-throttle, it limits the air flow, so less fuel is used

VortexValves only work when used inline with the Tornado. Add the resistor mod off ebay to get even more power. Want top of the line? Add some Slick 50!
