This is off the kenne bell webiste, from the FAQ section.

"What is the most ridiculous aftermarket product? Hands down, it's the "little intake fans" and the "throttle body spacers" with the bore grooves."


I mean if you think about it, how much "swirling" of the air can there be? What happens when it hits the different runners on the intake manifold? And what's it doing when it enters the combustion chamber? Not spinning.

Save your money man.
