wow, magnetic ionizer. I think I'll skip that one and go for the pre-ignition system. Get more horsepower by igniting the fuel inside the gas tank. that way it's already fired as it's coming out of the injectors.

I also love the "Guaranteed Fastest Shipping". I bet it gets to your mailbox before you even order it. I'm gonna go check my mail now.

we're not giggling because somebody posts this up every other week along with the "30hp super chip". It just gets sooo old.

DESCRIPTION:
Q. What is the Xtreme Typhoon ?
A. The Xtreme Typhoon is a stationary vortex generator that fits inside your air intake tube. But what we're not going to tell you is that it swirls the air and then the MAF screen and Throttle Body butterfly straightens it back out again before it gets to your intake manifold.

Q. What is the Xtreme Magnetic Ionizer ?
A. The Xtreme Magnetic Ionizer is a useless piece of interesting looking plastic that fits around your fuel line and appears to be doing something.

Q. How does the Xtreme Typhoon Work?
A. The Xtreme Typhoon produces a vortex effect in the combustion chamber of your engine. (Not really, but we know you're gullible)
This would allow for better atomization of your fuel in case it actually worked, resulting in more complete moronization of the driver.
By enhancing driver moronization, the Xtreme Typhoon increases the income of my internet based business. Lab tests conducted by the EPA on non-moving vortex generators (not the actual product we sell) showed results as high as 20 horsepower and 24% increases in mileage. Other independent studies yielded results as high as 35 HP and 31% MPG. Although results varied from vehicle to vehicle such as actual consumer studies, there were horsepower losses across the board, as a result of flow restriction and considering the price, ease of conning you, and maintenance free operation, the Xtreme Typhoon is a worthwhile investment for us.

Q. How does the Xtreme Magnetic Ionizer Work?
A. The Xtreme Magnetic Inoizer produces a strong odor under your hood. This causes people to hold their noses when you floor it and they will be gratefull for how fast you leave. The vehicles onboard computer will notice the change, and will react by doing absolutely nothing that you will notice.

By claiming to break up fuel clusters, the Xtreme Magnetic Ionizer increases the amount of money separated from your wallet. Lab tests conducted by the EPA on fuel line ionizers showed a 90% increase in the chance of male drivers becoming pregnant, results as high as 10% gains in horsepower and 15% increases in mileage. Although results varied from vehicle to vehicle, there were gains (of your money) across the board, and considering the price, ease of install, and maintenance free operation, the Xtreme Magnetic Ionizer is a worthwhile investment.

Yeah what I've learned and have been told from all the guys here, is if it's under $50 it's probably not going to make that much of a difference in hp!

The sad thing that a lot of people buy these things, esp with gas prices being high (Yes $2.15 a gallon is still high)

So by blocking your intake, your going to INCREASE MPG? :wacko:

For another $30, put a flowmaster on

Well thank goodness I posted this, cause to be honest, I've never heard of it... So I thought it would be safer to ask about it before buying it than to buy it and then be screwed...

there was a complete testing of this and similar products forgot if the link was in one of these threads but the outcome was never good, either worse hp and loss of mpg or just didnt do anything, they did this all in a controlled environment with dyno testing
