Default brother got me one for my bday a looong time ago

Nice thought for a gift, he knew I liked my car and it was something for my car. Had fun installing it together, but in the end its a restriction in the airflow, and you don't want your airflow to be swirling. Straight air is better for performance.

Mitsubishi tried something similar on the Mitsubishi starion, it was called a jet valve the idea was to create turbulence in the combustion chamber. It did! Unfortunately it did this so well, it burned valves by leaning out the fuel mixture which ended up hurting valves.

To them it sounded like a good idea I guess, how may starions do you see on the road today? Now it looks like somebody thinks this will work in the intake tract?
