<shaking head smiley>

If there was ANY truth in these things, don't you think the manufacturers would be fitting them as standard in order to increase the saleability of their cars ???

But if you want to waste your money .... it's your choice ....  :)

But it must work... They sell loads of them :-X :-X :-X ::) ::) ::)

However, if you had an old car running a mixer type LPG system it may improve the LPG/Air mix and give a slightly more efficient burn... But I doubt it would be enough to notice ;)

um... quick lesson...

firstly, it is just a fan,    powered by the air intake itself.  it will just block it up.
Turbos are powered by the exhaust.
It is not a turbocharger.   It will prob DECREASE performance, but if you're lucky might make some whirring noise that sounds about as believeable as a N/A citroen saxo 1.2 with a dump valve.  (aka, fake)

Secondly...  Turbo charges force more air into the engine, and sensors adjust fuel injectors to match.  Therefore when you have a turbo, you use MORE fuel.  Saying it will decrease fuel consumption is an outright scam.

2 points for ur ass there my friend

Sorry, I couldn't see this thread and not post a reply... :)
