Is an aeroturbine realy work

Hello,<br> I was on ebay the other day looking at CTD stuff when i ran across a thing called an aeroturbine. This thing looked kinda like a chrome glass pack muffler, they wanted atleast 150.00 for it. The manufature claimed that the aeroturbine will actually pull exhuast from the trucks engine thus decreaseing turbo lag EGT's at the same time. They claim that you mount it behind the turbo. i was just wondering if anyone haad one and if they really worked or not. <br> TY

I'm betting it's snakeoil.<br>Similar to the one you put on top of a carburator, supposed to vortex the air in for increased gas mileage.<br><br>The home page of the manufacturer says its for the &quot;Cummings Turbo Diesel&quot;.<br><br>Not very hope inspiring.<br><br>phox
