Competition Turbulating fuel, does it work ?

[SWalker1]

Have been hearing good things from diferent manufactures about these fuel "swirlers",was wondering if anyone has tried them on a high H. P. truck. SEE ADVERTISING @ www.turbo3000d.com

I would like to see some real world results on this also...

Wouldn't you think that the fuel gets a little turbulent when it gets compressed to several thousand PSI and then shoved through an injector all with in a fraction of a second?

That's a loaded question.

It appears that the only function that device does is separate you from your money

turbulating the fuel?!

This has to be a scam. The '98. 5 and up engines have electric lift pumps. If there is going to be any advantage to 'turbulating' the fuel, you are already getting it. This is another case of junk science intended to separate you from your money.

scams

look at how the air swiralers advertise, how is that going to work through your turbo, through the intake manifold, on a gas engine --maybe-- but not on these. find some one who has one and spend a day with them, and check it out. --- put your money back in your pocket, and buy an ice cream cone. enjoy.

just my penny's worth.

There are also products on the market to reduce aeration of fuel (fuel preporators)... . the fact that there are two products with completely opposite goals to achieve the same end result is a bit odd.



One of them - or both - have to be B. S.

I spoke with Andy @ Turbo3000 and he seems to know what he`s talking about, so what the heck I have the perfect opportunity to see if it works since I`m just putting my ported&polished , O-ringed 24V head on this week. I plan on doing some dyno runs with it off @ then put it on to see if its BS or not. I`ll post the results ASAP.

Cool... . be sure to give us some (**cough... Consumer Reports... . cough**) unbiased facts.

You might want to buy one of those magnet fuel ionizers while you are at it. I hear they gain you as much as 25% on your milage and power! And don't forget to get one of those turbo mufler thingys that add so much power to the exaust system. Oh yea and one of those 20$ electric axial supperchargers (ah or bilge blower) that blow 900 CFM on ebay. Might as well get one of those pour in engine rebuilds in a can too.

Theres always a good salesman behind every scam... ...



Ask the guys at Diesel Dynamics or Piers if they would use one on their trucks

IT IS FREE is'nt it????

IT IS free, is'nt it???????

At least on my old gas truck that I had, I actually gained 1mpg. with it. Got it from JCWhitney just out of sheer curiosity. Surprised me that it did help a little. Doesn't do anything for diesel powered vehicles.

 

[SWalker1]

Will not sell or use BS!

I figure this, if its BS I`ll call them them on it! If no one I know has tried them ,I`ll waste $150 and save everyone the trouble. If by some chance it does work I will sell them. Thats why I sell & service good products like DTT, PDR , Edge , DD , Pac-brake , Bully-Dog, AFE ,etc.

As someone told me in the chat room... ... don't forget the Banks stickers, they are good for at least 20 horse.

So, Smokefoot, you found any use for the turbulent gizmo ? Did you get figures ? Thanks,

LMFAO



Turbulator+Vornado+Fart Can Exhaust+5' wide rear spoiler+Banks sticker= 700HP



HVAC better watch out!

 

[WadePatton]

Ya'll know what PT Barnum said.



I have another saying. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING works like it does on t. v.



Take that to the bank. If it did, why would they have to work so hard to sell it?





And there's this Nigerian guy who wants me to handle some money for him.....

 

[TxDieselKid]

We got something like that sitting here in the cabinet. Sitting right next to it is some snake oil. Funny thing is that we really do.





Let us know what you find out Scott.
