The tornado is a turbulence maker and turbulence hurts velocity.
Good motor builders are developing turbulence in the chamber to enhance burn.

 

I just re-read the Dirt Wheels DS project story where they said this thing works. They said they could feel it enhance the throttle response and took away the "bobble" the DS usually has down low. Well, they didn't test just this product, it went along with a FMF slip on, jetting changes and I'm gonna assume an aftermarket air cleaner, so of course it'll have better throttle response, but there is no way they can actually pin it on the Power Now unit.

 

Isn't the idea of riding at part throttle to slow yourself down? Why would you want increased power at part throttle?

If you make more power at half throttle, you would need to lessen the amount of throttle you apply to maintain the same speed. If you don't want to be limiting your speed, your at full throttle anyway. That would have to be one of the silliest products I've seen. Even if it works, why would you want it to?

If I want more power at half throttle, do you know what I do? That's right, I squeeze the throttle a bit more! and that's free! If it improved power at full throttle, it might be worthwhile, but it makes no real claim to do that.

 

??? why not? would like to know why?

I don't know why there isn't any evidence. I just haven't seen any dyno runs comparing running them to running without them. I see what they are trying to do but I have to say, knutz makes a good case regarding why you would want them in the first place.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I hear the blue shop rags make better power than the red ones. About a 3-4 HP difference.

 

Hi OMR,
What were the results of your testing?
