Interesting, but more likely not to be any better than a free flowing no brand exhaust system. Cant beleive they would make a claim such as a 25% fuel saving.

Yea. Sound to good to be true. It is similar to the Hilcone product that i have tried a few years back where it goes inside after air flow meter. Same theory of creating a suction to draw more air into engine like a mini-turbo. Didn't really see a significat improvement so i returned to get money back.

I did some search on net and found that quite a few 4wd turbo diesel owners from other forum has tried it this vortex muffler. Most of them seems happy that it does work. Who know??? It would be good if they have some dyno results and customer feedback on their website.
