Hey guys i have heard you can buy and i have seen them in stock myself..
you can buy induction propellers that you put into your air induction behind the pod, and when the pod sucks air, the propeller spins faster and faster causing massive intakes of air...
do you think they would be a good investment there only like 40 bucks worth it you guy think? |

You already have one, in fact, you already have two of them! They go by the name of CT12A turbo chargers! lol
Do NOT get 'sucked' (pardon the pun) into this malicious bollocks! If it only spins due to ambient air flow movement, then how the bloody hell is it going to spin fast enough to suck more air in?!?
These things have been getting around for aaaages and I am still amazed that some people fall for the advertising campaign.
To answer your question, no, they are NOT worth it. Keep your $40 take refuge from this stupid weather atm and go buy yourself a carton of beer  |

Those impeller things are right up there with the resistors that give you 'an extra 30hp'
Don't believe the hype - its a complete waste of money and will likely give you LESS power. |

I got a battery operated fan with one of those water spray bottles attached to it in my intake.
It gives me extra boost hard and when i want even more power i flick a switch to pump the water bottle spray!
Its like naws man. Fken awesome power. |

I think Callum may be referring to a intercooler water spray kit? or are you injecting water INTO your actual manifold? |

while were talking about gaining extra power has anyone used or plans to use a HHO generator?
from what i understand they can add fuel economy and power. |

Straight in to the air intake mate, just behind the pod.
You can pick one up here..
