Well when I removed them I found that... I didn't notice any difference

I've always thought they were a pile of $#@% and now I know they do nothing.

I suppose I should sell them in the markets section, but I just don't think anyone would be silly enough to buy them.

Try an advertise them on Overlander, they just love hiclones and any posts about them

Derek,

I'll swap you a shoo-roo, some anti- speed camera number plate spray and my pet Tasmanian Tiger for them

What the hell are Hyclones, sounds like something a guy I know would be interested in.

Geez mcrover, you've missed one the great inventions of all time.

Get a beer can, (drink beer first) cut it up with lotsa holes and vents and vanes and shove it in the intake system.

They can be found in the same aisle as left handed screwdrivers, striped paint, rabbits feet, etc......

...advertised heavily on the telly, so they must be real good! (A Demtel product?)

remember, accept only a genuine hiclone, don't fall for cheap imitations!!!

BUT WAIT FOR IT, THERES MORE!!!! THAT"S RIGHT ORDER ONE HICLONE NOW AND PAY BY CREDIT CARD AND WE'LL SEND YOU ANOTHER HICLONE FOR ONLY $5.00 MORE, THAT'S RIGHT AND IF YOU RING WITHIN THE NEXT 1/2 HOUR WE'LL ALSO GIVE YOU A FULL TAKE OF FUEL SO YOU WILL THINK THE HICLONE IS GIVING YOU EXTRA MILEAGE.

sorry but we must shout as this in an offer to good to be true.

That's very good rovernaut. Wonder if the Demtel dudes ever thought of that one?

I'd have a few of them, but they're the wrong colour

Done, but only if you can throw in 2 black Panthers from Western Victoria and a map to Lassiter's Reef

I can't believe there is someone who doesn't know what I Hiclone is!

mcrover you should be proud of your ignorance of them. Well done!

Quigger's analogy of the beer can is very accurate.

Ok I remember seeing something like that on telly now.

I dont think they took into account Valves, intake manifolds, Turbo's or air cleaners I suppose.

But thats just my technical reasoning based on nothing more than well nothing as I have never seen any thing like it in the flesh.

I did get given a spark amplifier which managed to burn out my electronic dizzy on my F truck that was meant to increase the intensity of the spark.

The display was impressive where he had 2 B&S 5 hp motors and he would swap it between them.

My FIL bought 1 but it didnt fit on his Stag so he gave it to me where after 2 days cost me $120 for a replacement HE sensor.

At least I didnt pay for the amplifier.
