a turbo charger is like adding a high-pressure water pump to your water line.

that thing is like adding a toilet

I suppose that is a good comparison, because this device isn't aiming to increase pressure per se, just create a vortex.* Hmm.* Do you know if you can find a toilet that would fit through the opening in the hood of the H2?

Smile Re: More Mileage for Hummers?

A $10.00 POS....it will eat away at your milage not help it, you need to fit the stupid thing in your air-intake manifold...GOOD LUCK!, the hole it has to go through is smaller than the hole it sits in, next it like's to move around in there so that you never get a consistant quality airflow...hence you will be running your vehicle richer and at times leaner and before you know it you'll be replacing the chip that regulates your EFi system. Get a high performance air flow filter and pipe system (K&N). Change out your "MASS - AIRFLO SENSOR" from the mesh style thats in it now to a free flo system, change the fluids in your beast to Synthetic and voila...instant gratification!! Total investment approx $600-$800.

Stop messing around on the air-intake side of the problem. Put one of these on your fuel line instead :

Well, at least it isn't completely worthless... That stainless steel clamp is probably worth $0.50!

I'm guessing the lack of follow-up on this thread is due to less-than-spectacular results...

Anyone care to share their experiences?
