ausubaru92 Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Hey fellow Sube owners I have recently seen ads on tv advertising the HiClone fuel saver (Aust) also known as the tornado, and was wondering if anybody has had any experience with these tricky little devices. Do they work??? Are they worth the AU$160??? Can you make a homemade one??? :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northguy Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Scam. You might as well mount a pinwheel onthe hood for all the good it will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoobywagon Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Those things are just snake oil. Utter crap. And just so you know, yes, they do show impressive HP gains on the television. But many times, the way they do it is they will do a dyno pull with the car in fourth gear. Then they install their little device and do the pull again in third gear. Of COURSE you're gonna get a higher HP number!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
