jordak Member 1,226 Member For: 20y 11m 6d Posted 03/10/04 12:48 AM Share Posted 03/10/04 12:48 AM Has anybody ever tried the Hi Clone product? This product has been around for a number of years and promises good fuel savings and increased power for little outlay.Having done a search and found nothing about it suggests to me that it is either the worlds best kept secret or a tried and tested loser in the world of mods.For those that have'nt come across the Hi Clone, check out the site, for those that have, whats the go. Up to 10% increase if power and up to 20% in fuel savings for $160 (30 day money back guarantee) unbelievable but true?? www.hiclone.com.au Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/13209-hi-clone/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Elvis Brown Guests Posted 03/10/04 01:27 AM Share Posted 03/10/04 01:27 AM (edited) If it sits in the air intake before the turbo wouldn't any of it’s “cyclone” inducing effects be lost as a result of the turbo compressing the air, passing through the intercooler etc…..? I’m certainly not a mechanical wiz, but I can’t see how the thing would actually work…..

My opinion on it is putting something in your air intake that blocks it partially isnt good. Look at how much better cars go if the air flow meter is removed after ECU upgrades.Dazza.
