Do you mean like your posts claiming that your intake setup provides increased performance without showing any proof?

Maybe you should send it to "tomp". No doubt we would see a glowing review of the Tornado from him! Hell, he's probably got enough empty boxes "lying" around the garage from shiny bolt-ons that he thinks his motor should be making about 2,000 horsepower!

PARAGON IS CORRECT ON THE TORNADO not working on large engines at least. We ran some tests with the device and oddly enough it did improve performance of light sports type cars to a noticeable feel it in the seat of your pants. I guess I mean imports really. When tried in a large block especially one of any size and weight it did not help at all. That is not an oppinion but, where some gear heads got to gether with nothing better to do that day and went down to a car parts store that sells them and got a bunch of them so they would fit many different size intake hose. It is not scientific or a super controlled experiment. But, the imports did benefit I guess because of the lighter wieght or something. We decided after just looking at performance to leave them in and it helped fuel economy again in the imports or small cars and the large rigs it did nothing.
Take or leave it but, most anyone on this forum that knows Me will tell You I research an idea or product till I'm sure when i share it here i'm not likely to be wrong although it does happen as no one is perfect.
PARAGON from My experience they do not work on large displacement engines but, do on the small engines. We did not try to figure out why except for just different guys throwing out guesses. Guys with the small cars kept theirs and used them. My guess is that the imports have such smaller intake piping and so short that it does give a blending effect of the fuel and air mixing as well as just helping to move more air through those small short pipes. But, in the end conjecture with as much trial as was reasonable.

I wonder how much they are willing to pay me if I tell them that it really works on my beautiful H2..  *** Please don't flame me *** I am only kidding... 
The last email from their customers were dated 6/24/2002.

Ok, I've let you dig your hole long enough.
Here is a pic again, with the label showing for the MAF, the Tornado beer can thingy that was hanging on my shop wall and the same sensors I showed before.

I'm sure that you know that reading an advertising claim does not qualify as research, so where's the dyno charts you reviewed before you purchased your intake and MAF?

Just imagine a mini-cyclone moving through your engine. This unit creates a swirling motion, allowing the air to move faster and more efficiently. All for under $70!!! Can you believe it??? And Sam Memmolo says it works, so that's proof right there!!!
