I looked at them, but just because someone is showing this on a dyno doesn't make it the truth of the day.

Original statement was it gave a power increase on all motors, even turbo motors.

I'm not saying it can't produce power, but I doubt by all my knowledge it can make additional power in a modern correct tuned turbo motor.

And for not wanting to deal with turbos I understand that, either you need money or some mechanical experience and acces to a shop.

And complete turbo systems are expensive, but it's possible to get a good working turbo system for an 8V motor for less than what it will cost to get a 16V motor to 180 or more tested hp. And you get the same power out of the turbo system at least. But everyone has there ways they want too go.
