here is the deal with the turbonators, as far as I understand them. you want your airflow to be smooth and fast, not turbulent as all hell and back, otherwise you are not moving as much air. turbonators might get you better gas mileage, but you could do the same with a dirty filter, as it is nothing more than blocking air. the decrease in air, if read by the computer correctly, will cause you to use less gas per rpm. you can do the same by reducing the weight of your lead foot instead of adding a cheap POS that might break apart and cost you thousands in motor rebuild costs.
