[W126 Coupe] tornado air twister

[Iain Gunn]

Anything that creates a vortex in a chamber increases efficiency, If you 
"spin" the air down a pipe, you can move more volume.Do they work in engine 
intakes?? Who knows, I know a person who uses one in his Impala SS and he 
swears by it.
    PS, if you go to a company that specializes in different kinds of fans, 
you can buy a vortex type fan blades for about $5.00
