I thought as much, it just seemed to make sense.

Well I'm pretty sure vortices do actually increase air density, but in this application it's doubtful that it will make power

He says that it's dyno proven. Should we ask him about the dyno printouts then?

F1 engines don't and have never use anything of the sort. So no, they don't make you faster.

AEM v2 or any dual chamber intake would give better/same effect?

Anyone can claim it works but without proof you shouldn't really part with your money. Especially when the people who want your money are telling you it works.

Applying their logic to another situation.

Pedalling faster makes your bike go faster.

Well yes that's true, but if you have an 18 gear pushbike and are pedalling faster in 1st gear than in say 18th gear, are you really going to be faster? You might be turning the pedals faster but the bike still might not be going any quicker.
