    thats true i would have never thought the elbow is as restrictive as it seems to be though. and sorry man im back at school already.

        Joel, thats just what you need to tell them when that LS1 pulls up to you and wants a race

        I wonder how thos LS guys will feel when they get beat by an LT1 using their original intake and PCM?

            i dont think so but possibly. i think i seen it on horsepower tv. they were doing a dyno session and added it and re dynoed and actually loss power, but maybe the supporting mods werent there or not correct???? glad joel is happy with it either way

              you definitely are not going to lose power with an airfoil. Its function is to reduce turbulance at the divider for the dual-blade throttle body. The "tornado" you are thinking of does the exact opposite and both creates turbalance while also being a restriction. Its quite literally theft because it doesnt serve the advertised function in any way whatsoever.

                That's it, Tornado, not vortex.

                          its a lot of working trimming that radiator support to fit right, but its worth it!
