Being 100% honest and straight down the line, it would be a waste of 30mins of our life that you will never get back! They do two parts of sweet F... All :D

DON'T BOTHER. Can't make it any clearer than that. I cannot believe they are even still selling them or that people are buying them. They are like the placebo effect of performance/economy mods.

I know the ARB you are talking of and I cannot believe they are selling them and even promoting them out the front of the store. I saw the billboard the other day on the way past and nearly died. They've pretty much lost all credibility in my eyes now. It's one thing to be stockign them in the corner to keep someone happy but it's another to be promoting them on a sign on the national highway. Might as well have a sign up saying we are all tools here don't bother coming in.

"Not going to do much" .. well he's right there .. except remove $shitloads from your wallet :rofl:

"Wouldn't be worth it" .. can't argue with that as he's right again :D

The only way these ridiculous things work is because they are so expensive that the idiot that allows him/herself to be sucked in and part with their cash then proceeds to drive like miss daisy until s/he convinces themselves their foolish investment is actually worth it.

And then a few months later (or maybe sooner depending on memory retention) when the numbskull has forgotten the pain and embarrassment of the outlay they go back to their old driving habits and fuel consumption returns to where it was before they "hycloned" their vehicle.

Fools and their money are soon parted :roll:

Having said that, of course the original question from Barno111 was "I've got these out of a hungy, should I put them in to my car" to which the answer is obviously NO. Put them on ebay and sell them to the next unsuspecting fool.
