I got better swirl action out of the acorns in my throttle body, and they were biodegradable!

a hp increase? the only hp one of these things is ever gonna increase is the Hire Purchase you take out buying a replacement car after you fitted one... Of course in the context of a 2-stroke carb motor or similar they could well help power if for example the carb was underjetted, since the restriction in airflow would help bring the mixture back nearer 15/1. Better just to set the rest of the system up right though really. and maybe

35 more hp and 50 more ft/lbs of torque instantly plus 20 more mpg!!!! I would charge a lot more for something that will add that much power and save that much gas.
