That's roughly a 4% increase, depending on the particular car.

Pedro: Not being a wise guy here, but is 4% really noticeable? The concept sounds great and the quality looks good, but unless the buyer can safely say "Hey, I can really feel the difference in 'power' and performance, why would we spend the money and labor.??
Another thing that bothers me is your video demo. Redirecting the air strean because the "wedge" compresses the air stream by removing turbulance may make the velocity of the air greater at the extra distance to knock down the foam discs, but it'[s not really delivering more air. Remember that the air is not being pushed into the intake manifold by a turbo or reversed vacuum system, but is being drawn or pulled in as the engine creates vacuum at the other end. That has a big effect on turbulance the way I see it. I'm not saying that the splitter concept doesn't work somewhat, but that the video test is not a valid measure or demonstration of the value of TurboTorque.
The bottom line is really the feedback that we get from customers who participate in this forum. For those who are willing to buy and try, are you fully willing to refund if we are not satisfied with the performance improvement??
