I have used one in my old vehicle...
I used to have an 86' 300zx turbo that I put one in. I personally thought that it made a difference. I know for sure that it increased my fuel mileage by 3-4 mpg. I could tell a difference in power also. But this is my opinion. I have been thinking about putting one in my SVX lately but I don't know if it will have the same effects. I might buy one just to find out.

It worked on my 300zx!
I tested it on my Z! And got 3 and sometimes 4 more mpg! It may not work for every car but it did do something for mine!

Tornado=big POS. My old boss was dumb enough to get one for his Camry. MPG dropped quiet a bit, and the car ran like crap, but it was fine again after he took it out. There are many, many better things you could spend $70 on for your SVX.

Why do we have to discuss these dumb things every six months?

ok maybe not "any car" but im not saying im an expert or i know what im talking about but you got to ask yourself why so many people im thinking truck owners because thats all ive seen them on trust these airiad throttle body spacers that look like they dont do crap....im not trying to say id use it or anything im just trying to help find answers, the best way to figure it out is go out and buy one and out it on your car and dyno it, till then and till its proved will i ever buy a piece of crap like that or believe that it doesent work, since at this time im not saying im gonna buy one or i think its crap
and yes people do buy into crap i strongly believe that people are getting dumb now days thinking these pills will make you lose 100 pounds in a day or these pop ups that give you free plasma tv's but id just like to see some research done on it and dont tell me "well go out and buy one phoenix and tell us what it did" cuz im not but intil i see some proof it does something will i believe it works and until i see proof that it doesent work will i believe it doesent work and yes i do think its crap and i really dont think it works but im not gonna fully believe anything till its provin http://www.airaid.com/spacers.asp now if you dont have something constructive to say like "well you see the throttle body is closer to the combustion chamber or whatever" since you have "experience" to post so if you ask me, me wanting research into it is nothing of being anecdotal
