I use seasonal air in my tires and that helps a lot more than the previously-mentioned products! The summer air increases gas mileage, while the winter air increases traction.

I was looking for some parts to boost up the HP and Torque and I came across this thing called The Vortec Cyclone. It claims to up the Horsepower bewtween 5-12. I'm a little skeptical about this product cuz I've never heard bout it. Does anyone got any info on this?

Website alone is a red flag. It uses a template. You can tell by the layout of it and the way the links arenot dynamic.Click on stuff. The only thing that changes is the information screen. It does not refreshthe entire screen.It's not customized at all. Hard to explain but I would pass. Just another get money quick scheme set up by some telemarketing company with something to pitch.

Really? I figured 32 pounds was 32 pounds. I can understand that seasonally, the pressure in a tire may rise or drop due to changes in outside air temperature, but can't you just top them up at the gas station if necessary?

Don't waste your money. You'd be better off taking the money and buying a K&N drop-in filter, at least that may give you a few extra horsepower.

I'm considering an intake& tune. I wonder if this could hurt the engine in any way, and what it would do for mileage. I'd like a little more power for when I need it, but don't want to be burning even more gas than I already burn.

(Yeah, yeah, do a search before posting, blah blah blah. Searching sucks.)

Seasonal air's a good mpg boost, but if fuel economy's what you need you should probably install an adjustable powerband and set it for more torque.

the text from above mentrioned website

Wish you had a little more low end torque? Maybe you want a high revving formula1-esque screamer? KaleCoAuto's Adjustable Powerbands are the perfect solution! The power bands are made from titanium-injected rubber, with high grade 440 fasteners. Six links are included. One band is for horsepower, and the other for torque. You may use more than three links per side, but extreme caution should be taken!

correct me if i'm wrong...but titanium is a metal correct? how can it be injected? maybe this will make the car like wolverine hehehe.

glacial, where do you find this stuff lol
