bmaddock is an unknown quantity at this point
Nissan thought they would increase low-end torque and decrease fuel consumption by "swirling" the air/fuel mixture similar to a throttle body spacer does on old carb engines. Apparently it didn't hold up to its claims because they removed the butterfly valves on the S14 intake manifolds. Cool idea but ultimately impedes airflow.
