The general concensus on this site is that they are garbage.

I tried one in my '96 Ranger XLT with 2.3L engine...it literally tried starving my engine of the air. The tornado is a bunch of junk. As far as putting a spin on the air and everything they got the right idea but going about doing it the wrong way.
