not a fat lot really.

its supposed to desturb the air going into the cylinders producing an "even burn" but it fucks up your engine as it puts more air in the cylinders than is supposed to as its past the air sensor so it screws about abit then the lambda sensor makes up for the excess air by adding more fuel thus lowereing econemy not increasing it.

and dependand on where you fit it it makes one of the cylinders and the rest run normal. dont do it there crap and a waste of money.
