Hiclone Engine Performance booster

It is more fun with four wheels.

From Hicloneqld

I came across this ad of hiclone which claims 23% better fuel economy and 15 % more power.  The idea is that the swirling effect created by the device works like a turbo by causing faster air intake.  The device works better if used with hi flow air cleaner like K & N.

Before I made many of this made from:   soft drinks cans, milk and sardines can, and GI sheets.   You have to keep this very clean though.  The difference in performance in actual use is not palpable.  Nothing works better than a turbo.
