Norm Lafave of ``Auto Talk'' Endorses Tornado; Device Dramatically Improves Automobile Engine Performance and Fuel Efficiency

    SANTA FE SPRINGS, Calif.--Jan. 5, 1999--After several weeks of testing, Norm Lafave, host of 97.1 FM's radio program "Auto Talk," has officially endorsed the Tornado Air Management System.
    The Tornado is a unique automotive device that creates a swirling motion in the air intake systems of automobile engines. It swiftly moves air around twists and bends, enhancing fuel atomization and improving efficiency and performance. In tests performed by an EPA-licensed emissions lab, the swirling effect of the Tornado has been shown to improve gas mileage by as much as 24 percent.
    "I ran tests on several different vehicles, and the Tornado proved itself in every case. The Tornado Air Management System is a real value for any vehicle owner," said Lafave.


    Results of Norm Lafave's tests:


    1993 Toyota Corolla -- Picked up 2 mpg and eliminated engine
    hesitation.


    1966 Ford Mustang -- Reduced exhaust emissions dramatically.
    Hydrocarbons (HC) dropped from 355 to 334 ppm and carbon monoxide
    (CO) dropped from 6.04 to 5.46 percent.


    1983 Honda Civic -- Initially lost 1 mpg. By third tank of gas,
    vehicle picked up 5 mpg over base figure. Emissions were greatly
    reduced: HC fell from 98 to 44 and CO dropped from .73 to .28.


    1987 Nissan Maxima -- Low-end and midrange power increased;
    vehicle accelerates much faster. Initially lost 1 mpg, but gained
    1.6 mpg by second tank.


    1987 Acura Integra -- 1 mpg increase, engine bog eliminated.


    1987 Mazda 626 -- Picked up 2 mpg, emissions markedly reduced.


    1987 Honda Prelude -- Major power increase, picked up 1.5 mpg.


    The Tornado air management system is easily installed and never needs to be replaced or cleaned. Priced at $69.98, the Tornado is an affordable addition to most cars, light trucks, SUVs and RVs. Purchase of a Tornado includes a 30-day, money-back guarantee and lifetime warranty.
    Corporate and government users of the Tornado include Pacific Bell, the City of Norwalk, the Boise Police Dept., FEDCO Tire Center, JC Whitney and Cabela's.
    Jay Kim, president of Tornado Air Management Systems, is a member of the Motor Press Guild, the National Association of Fleet Administrators, the Society of Automotive Engineers, the Specialty Equipment Market Association, the Automotive Technicians Association and the California Automotive Teachers Association.
