LOL!

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.

It isnt a fan, it doesnt move. Basically, it is stainless steel vanes that swirl the air (hahahah) in the air intake... Basically it is another thing to get sucked into the throttle body and the intake manifold.

I did not even catch the fact that it was not moving.(was laughing to much while reading that site, i guess ..... I really did think it was a Hair-Dryer like fan contraption....
