What is a "Power Tower"??? My friend told me that i could gain a few extra ponies by getting a Power Tower. He said he put one on a 5.4L ford and he could "feel" the power. Theoretically these things work by blending the fuel with the air to provide a more intense burn. i'm assuming he is talking about something similair to a throttle body spacer but with some kind of louvre in it to swirl up the air, am i wrong? if i'm not then what he's talking about is about 99% worthless which is what i'm really leaning towards.

My car came with a tornado installed...I quickly removed it as they are well known not to gain any power and will likely cost you power. If you still think you want to try one I will sell you mine for $20 shipped.
