These things have been tested all over and have never been proven to provide any power or MPG increase. Save your $$ for something that has been proven to work if you want a few extra ponies.
7% of 210 (your "stock" hp) is 14.7
You really think you can get 14.7 hp out of a piece of metal in your intake? People spend hundreds for a gain like that Ex: CAI, tune, exhaust....
If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Put a K&N drop in in it and call it a 7% increase over your buddys accord. At least that will be worth it.

Let your buddy waste his money, don't waste yours. That will give you as much performance increase as an air freshener.
Air will flow through faster without it in the way, thats just basic physics.

I have some snake oil for your fuel that will double your HP.
$200 a drop...
Tornado, HA HA HA.
Your buddy got taken....
If anything, the lighter wallet seems like more HP.
The added weight of said Tornado negates the added HP it produces.
So you gain nothing but loose $$ in the process....

Sorry but all research suggests that devices such as this (and the $20 "chips" from ebay) are complete wastes of money that do nothing to improve performance or gas mileage. There are no cheap ways to increase hp (not that cheap at least). Save your money and buy a CAI and tuner.
