    at high speed the spinning PC fan they fit will impede airflow into the engine..
    pure snake oil.
    
    I would imagine the extra load on the battery would undo any gains even if there was the remotist chance of getting any

    I think ever newbie at some point (including me at one point) has found this on eBay and posted a thread on here about that :-)
    
    Like I mentioned before - at the bottom where a bloke with a Vauxhall Cav says somethin like 'Wow its like the best thing Ive ever bought init mate'
    
    Still think someone should buy one and see what it does :-P but it wont be me
