I had one for my old civic called the tornado. It seemed to increase gas mileage a little, but that's about it. It can't do any harm to the engine.

cool ok cheers.. the increase in gas mileage is good, didnt it give you more power?
quote from Turbonator.com

"More Power: Are you looking for more power from your wheels? Whether you have a stock or aftermarket intake system, the Turbonator will add up to 35 horsepower to your vehicle."

thats loads for such a small mod.

they also say 30 day money back garantee.

I wouldn't bother.

More info

Do a google search for vortex valve, turbonator, etc. and you'll find they all appear to be BS.
