Anyone ever see this or anything like it?  What are your thoughts?  For $27, I'm already a buyers club member, it might be worth a try. You think I would need to have LMS adjust my tune?

Ditto what SRT said!  It's a bit more complex.... But send the $27 to me for the info!  Lol

Sounds like you could compare it to those "cyclone fuel savers" that were all the rage 10 years ago claiming increases HP and fuel mileage.

Nothing to see here ... move along :)

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I had to install one of these on a Chevy truck at one point like 8 years ago when I worked in a car shop. It was easy to do, but I bet if we'd done a dyno there would've been no difference.

Maybe it cools down the IAT's after passing through their intake!

Tuner Boost

Any good tuner can raise the ratio the blade opens on a TB, but that I would put in the "turbonator" category as well.
