Wow! I'm gonna buy myself three of those and strap them to my Scenic! It'll give me an extra 105bhp and save me 93% on my fuel bills! That'll give me 225bhp and give me 1 million miles to a gallon! Sod it I'm gonna go mental and get 5!

[Dog Star]

Bwaaaaahahaaa! "Install two for double turbo power".

That's the most outrageous set of claims for anything I have ever seen.

ETA: Look at his feedback - he sells loads of them! I cannot believe that there are so many gullible people. All credit to the bloke - his advert is a work of art

WTF would a plane designer be doing putting stuff on F1 cars?

Works on cars with turbos I note. Might get a couple for the 335i. Pistonheads group buy anyone?

That advert should be illegal, what a load of balls.

Yes, like saying 'designed by chef for use in an operating theatre'

I would hazard a guess that these would just restrict airflow and give you worse mpg.

A friend of mine who owns a garage was asked to fit something very similar if not the same item. The customer, who bought it in, told him once fitted about the extra BHP he could expect and how quick his car should and walked away pleased as punch with his eBay purchase. My friend put it to one side, immediately regretting what he had just let himself in for.

When I went round there for a chat and a cuppa, he showed me this poxy plastic spinney fan thing and keeping a dead straight face told me the claims of the customer....the silence was deafening for approximately 5-10 seconds followed by uncontrollable fits of laughter.

We where so loud the mechanic next door stuck his head in the door to see if we where ok.

Needless to say I had to walk away before I choked myself.

You cant more bhp and better mpg at the same time what an waste of time but a lot of youngester will buy that to make there stty corsa sound like its got a turbo

Someone left positive feedback saying "Good item but didnt work , Great communication,A+++++"

To what level has it been diluted?

[bazking69]

Comedy.

[gamefreaks]

Yes, I am sure it could work!

But...by my very rough calculations, to generate a pressure delta of 0.8bar, it would need to spin at about 3,500,000 rpm and would need 5,600W of power to run it.

lol!

Does it also come with 2 x stickers for those that feel they have to put stickers on the sides of their cars letting everyone know they have a K&N .Konis and a Alpine head unit etc ??? They all seem to be "cloned" from the "born unlucky" family

I think it probably is technically illegal. You're not just allowed to make up any old st to sell products.
