Has anyone heard of the Turbonator?

Post by RhinoWrecker »

I found out about this $70 dollar turbocharger which gives you 35% more hp and increases gas mileage, but has anyone owned one or knows if there any good. I'm looking for a turbocharger, or anything which can boost my hp in my 2000 Leganza.

sounds like one of those cheap electric turbos that don't do much of anything. Stay away from it. The low price alone should warn you.

info on the turbonator

Post by RhinoWrecker »

Supercharge your car, truck, van, boat,
RV, or motorcycle in just 5 minutes.

The Turbonator is much less expensive and more efficient than any turbocharger, supercharger, blower, or intercooler. Its superior design increases horsepower while lowering fuel costs, and the Turbonator's performance is backed with a 30-day money back guarantee.

More Power: Are you looking for more power from your wheels? Whether you have a stock or aftermarket intake system, the Turbonator will add up to 35 horsepower to your vehicle.

Better Gas Mileage: The Turbonator allows your engine to burn fuel more fully and efficiently, resulting in MPG gains as high as 31%. It pays for itself in no time.

Superior Quality: The Turbonator is made of solid stainless steel and backed by a lifetime warranty. It is guaranteed to outlast your car. The Turbonator's fins are engineered to improve combustion without restricting airflow. Because the fins do not intersect in the middle of the hose, air is allowed to flow freely into the engine. This results in improved performance and alleviates any stress on the fins themselves.

30-Day Money Back Guarantee: We have thousands of satisfied customers who have recommended the Turbonator to their friends and families. Try it for 30 days, and if you are not 100% satisfied, you can return it with no questions asked. Get more horsepower and better fuel economy or get your money back. Turbonator, more boost for your buck. Order now.

How does it work?
The Turbonator's airflow dynamics produces a swirling, fast-burn effect in the combustion chamber. This creates finer particles of atomized fuel, allowing better flame propagation and more complete combustion. Read more..

"I purchased two Turbonators for my Chrysler Sebring and immediately noticed the increase in power. It was more than I expected. I am already noticing the improved gas mileage. I like them so much, I am ordering two more for my brothers. Now, it feels like my car has a turbo charger." - Dr. Brian Coyle (San Jose, CA) Read more testimonials..

Let me see if I get this straight. It is not a fan because it does not move. It goes in after the air filter box and it's primary function is to swirl the air.
