Tornado Air/ Fuel Genie?
Anyone tried either of these products? I know some people taht say they work great and others that say they sucked. Just wondering if anyone has tried it with their Bonne'* and if they worked or not.

#5 Tornado/Vornado type devices:
Any device that is inserted into the intake in order to create a 'vortex' effect will negatively affect performance due to the demands of the MAF sensor. These devices may work fine in a TBI or Carburated intake, but have no benefit, and will probably degrade performance on any 87-03 Bonneville intake. Don't waste your money.

Yeah they work in other cars/trucks but dont do anything for us. My friend use'* a tornado on his Carb truck and he went from 16mpg to about 20mpg so they do work... just not for all types of vehicles.

The best thing to do with a Fuel genie is using it as a shuriken, to throw at the bank attendant when you rob a bank. You will save more money that way(no need for a gun).
But seriously, I don't know who thought that thing up, but I have yet to see a single car, that it has worked on.
