Default leather on track model

I had the dealer install after market leather. Same stuff
that Nissan uses on the touring model. Looks just like the
touring model leather.

Technically, you're right. Water and Air are fluids. But do they behave similarly enough to draw the conclusions that were made by tornado?

The other major flaw in this tornado logic is that theres a throtle plate and the back of the valves that the air hits on its way into the cylinders. Do whatever you want to the air in the intake, once it hits the plate its canceled out, same with the valves

Default The only test the Tornado passes are those run by the manufacturer...

This thing has been tested by several groups on the net. So far it seems that the only test the tornado can pass is the one in the commercial.

Yes.
The difference is that air is more compressable than water, but the fluid dymamics remain essentially the same in this paradigm.
