Sounds like a load of crap -- just like the "billage pump" supercharger fiasco...

However, they claim they are patent pending and have been certified legit -- as well as offering an unconditional warranty...

Any motor heads or car-techies out there - please - som imput on this product would be nice...

... I'm very curious...

Those installation drawings were all the proof I needed to pass on the spiralmax

[esmith13]

hehe... they were kinda ghetto :D

...obviously a startup company....

...But I bet Alexander Ghram Bell had to draw instructions for how to install a telephone too...

Never judge a book by it's cover.

... What do you think from a technical/theoretical standpoint??

My brother has a 83 300ZX he threw that in and he is so happy with it that my dad put one in his 00 Black Si. They said that you can tell a difference right away.

Are you shitting me??

Does rotation of air flow really do that much??

I thought the straight flow of an intake over the random flow through the stock plastic/rubber ribbed tube was what you wanted....

Now your telling me a straight, yet spiriling flow is even better still??

[ssvr6]

No, it doesn't. As soon as you remove the turbulence in the air at the intake level, it get's all messed up again at the TB.

This is total snake oil.

Hey, they claim a HP increase of anywhere from 0 to 35 HP. It's perfectly legit!



(as long as your happy with the first number)

[esmith13]

hahahaha!!!

Good call 02-sir!!!

Legally speaking, that makes their company perfectly legit!!!!

I didn't catch that the first time! :p

[02-sir]

[Pradamuimui]

you'd have to go back and read it... It's not the product you're talking about... We ALL know that one was a fake.

This is not a fan in your intake, it does not move at all....
