Question Tornado

i seen this Tornado airfoil product on TV a few weeks back, and i was just wondering if any of you guys have tried it out or know someone who has. i guess it's suppose to create a tornado like cone in your intake to provide better fuel/air mixing, which according to them, is suppose to add power and inprove feul economy. can anyone support their claims?! thanks for your time!

It's all well and good through the intake tubing, but once it enters the plenum, the air flow dissipates and breaks up anyway. It would probably be a better idea to put little tornado things in the runners instead.
