Well first i tested the triphase mod and that went ok but i dont recommend the waste of money...now i am going to test a non-moving votex generator for the 2.2...combined w/ the injen cai i should see some small increases in power due to better fuel (atomosation?) or a better burn if you will....so i get it soon and ill let you guys know if it it worth it...only $60 so if i get even 3 hp it's pretty cheap

There have been several test showing that they really don't work. Search either Popular Mechanics or Motor Trend, one of them did one of them.

Dont ever listen to any of those things. All they are are fans that you put in your intake and "blow" air into the engine. But no matter what your TB can only handle so much air. The only good thing about the fans are they blow air through air ducts on race cars to cool brakes...

But in this case...GOOD LUCK

ya this isnt a fan it just spins the air , doesnt increase airflow, giving the fuel more time to mix w/ the air and burn better...but thats what this is all about...i test and you reap the benefits
