TORNADO Air Management Systems. WORK? or NO?
Has anyone installed the TORNADO into their car? I ordered it for my car and was wondering if anyone had it and could tell me if it really works. Or is just BS?

You gain both but it's a different story for every car. I think Mercedes already has a decent intake setup and doesn't need a 50 cent piece of steel to make it any better.

I saw a dyno sheet where this gave a Chevy 1500 18 horsepower. Supposedly the stock intake slows down the air. The tornado swirls it around to make it enter the intake with more velocity. This is the same reason throttle body spacers work well on this truck. It's just a lousy intake design from the factory. I can promise you this will not work on your car. Call the manufacturers, they will tell you the same thing.
