it helps on some cars but barely even noticeable save your money
 
My friends dad bought one, they are crap and no noticable difference. I know every car is different but your money is better spend elsewhere.
 
Oh, where is Defiant when we need him? :)

As you can see, the majority of members here are of the same opinion of these magical pieces of tin that add so much horsepower.

In short, on a turbocharged car, it won't make a difference. Look at the shape of the intake manifold on our cars and ask yourself if the "spinning air" would still be spinning after being split up four ways and doing a 180* turn down before hitting the injectors.
