Has anyone installed this before? Any comments? I just installed mine. And I must say, I am pleased with the results, there's immediate pick up and response and I had to be careful with my accelerator and re-adjust my braking "time". I was introduced this by my friend who got to know the info from this thread www.shc-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=150196Its $60 with installation and its a less than 10 minute job. My friend who installed this in his Axio did not feel any effects on his ride at all but he could feel the difference on my ride. I would probably owe it to the fact that the Axio is already powerful car and does not did it but our pica are rather small thats why it had obvious and instant results.

I checked with my SE, as long no wires, tubes are cut or changed, it will still be in warranty. Its a gadget that is inserted in the "air hose", so no cutting, changing is involved, its the same like placing a UR struct bar where nothing to the engine is done. Bro/sis, I am not here to promote this product, I am here to share some positive experience when I inserted this product in my car, price wise, pls call Ricky and discuss with him, as for where and how, please refer to the links I provided for pictures and info on this velocity tuner. The installation will be done by Ricky. FYI, I only just met Ricky today. Thanks for your kind understanding

I installed this a yr ago too. Not bad I would say, but not fantastic. Sorry, just to be frank only. The effects can be felt but dont expect too much from it. Last time I install think its $49 also. Installing this will not void warranty as VT is attached onto the inside of the tubing connecting to the air intake. Wont be able to get pics for this either as it is fixed on the inside of the tubing. Worth the try if you have cash to spare.

As extracted from e link:
The Velocity Tuner swirls the air in the intake tube much like a tornado. As a result, this allows the air to move faster and more effectively around corners and bends. Think of it this way: when you drain a bathtub, a whirlpool is created because its the fastest way for the water to go down the drain. The concept is the same. The faster the air moves in your intake tract, the more power your car will have - it that simple.
The Velocity Tuner creates a mini-tornado which in turn creates finer particles of atomized fuel allowing better flame proliferation for a more complete ignition in the combustion chamber. Your vehicles ECU (computer) reads data through the O2 sensor then recognizes the change. In turn, it adjusts by cutting surplus fuel delivery thereby resulting in better gas mileage.
If I recall correctly, Simota got a similar one, except got a fan spinning.
