Default Add 18 horsepower????
anybody heard of this one yet? It works on 99.3% of cars manufactured after 1987. I wonder if it will work with my intake tornado. Chevrolet Intake Sensor Modification 18+ HP - eBay (item 260754574884 end time Mar-25-11 15:11:01 PDT)

Wow. I really hate people who try to sell that crap. It should be illegal.

A cheaper and easier way to do it...is to just move the senser closer to where the air comes in. That way it will be cooler (not heat soaked from the engine) and it will add more gas. That does the same thing as what that senser is surprose to do.

Good stuff man. I was worried for a minute. Especially combined with the words "intake tornado".
