Very impressive, and makes technical sense.

I think I would be cautious about the claimed gains. If you look at he graphs on the "what are the bennifits" page you will see numbers like 206 HP going to 207 HP. Or 93 HP going to 96 HP. I didn't see any of there examples that were close to the 10-15% HP claim. The scale on the graphs make it look like a big move. I am a little nervious that what we have here is a lot of scientific terms documented by graphs with favorable scaling to justify an expensive piece of Stainless Steel. On the other hand they do sound cool.

I agree they are not likely to add much power, but the way they work is cool stuff. And any increase is an increase. You can get more power cheaper. I like things like that even if it doesn't do a lot of good. Just the technology is enjoyable to me. It would not suprise me if tuned to a specfic engine and exhaust system they may do just a bit more. And you're right, they do sound cool.

I sent the company an email a week ago requesting test data on a carburated engine. I believe the results they posted were for turbos and diesels only. I have not received a response as of this posting.
