Ok, I was tempted into clicking on one of the ads at the top of this forum, and one of them was for the turbonator. it's supposed to atomize the fuel and increase HP by as much as 35 and increase gas mileage, and it's only $65. i was wondering if anyone has tried this on their TB/Envoy, and if so, is it worth it? Cuz if so, i might think about getting one of those...Thanks in advance everyone...

I have always heard that they are a complete waste of money and actually decrease horsepower...

Same here, according to everyone's opinions, they are crap. I can't say because I've never had one. I have seen this opinion in forums for other types of vehicles as well, not just the TB/EV. :m2:

Ah yes. The infamous tornado. The biggest crock of crap the aftermarket has ever seen :m2:

Honestly for that same $65, I'd go out and buy a K&N drop-in filter if you don't already have one. :D

No problemo. I guess it's just lucky that the majority of my free time comes during the peak posting hours for the forum!

Wierd huh, we all post late at night. Maybe we should all find a sleep aid forum. Most of Tommy's members are pretty normal (not so addicted), but then there are those of us who routinely post here every night. What should we refer to ourselves as, c'mon, you know who you are!!
