You only want swirl in the chambers, anywhere else is gonna slow your truck down.
But for a penny, I would've bought it too.

Swirl helps keep the fuel atomized and suspended in the air, so you need some degree of it virtually everywhere. Trucks are slow anyways.

I'm skeptical of this tornado thing, but for 1cent you can't go wrong even if it doesn't do anything you're only out a penny.

If it was actually possibe to get swirl through the intake, it would be good. But all the tornado really does is slow the air down, its a restriction.

I've read atleast 2 magazine articles on it. At school when they first came out, they did a dyno test. I think the least HP lost was 5 hp, but every vehicle is different. But the only positve tests I've seen are from Tornado.

The air entering an engine typically always has a greater or lesser degree of swirl, even if it's just from the air moving from the throttle plates and making it's way finally through the intake valve and into the cylinder, there is some level of swirling or air turbulence which helps keep the fuel suspended in the air. My guess is that the tornado thingey does more harm than good.

Yeah.
