That sort of says that the capacity of these tubes is not all that important. So, is a little turbulence really a big deal? So, what does that mean for TechnoTorque?? Of course the smaller tubes also increase the velocity of the air at this point, and that may be to the engines advantage! Who knows?

I would like to believe the claims made by Pedro, as he is a respected straight shooter. But we really need some buyer/user input at this time. Both for the TechnoTroque and TechnoTorque2.

Readers want to know. Is there really a noticable and impressive difference in torque at these mid range RPMs??? Is there really a noticable or measurable MPG difference???

Considering Pedro's return policy, the only loss if a buyer is dissatisfied is one way shipping cost and a few hours labor.

I've never claimed that there's an impressive difference in torque.
I've been stating that there's a gain of 6 to 8 extra foot-pounds of torque at 900 less revolutions.
That's roughly a 4% increase, depending on the particular car.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
