Question False OR Valid claims?

i seen this Tornado airfoil product on TV a few weeks back, and i was just wondering if any of you guys have tried it out or know someone who has. i guess it's suppose to create a tornado like cone in your intake to provide better fuel/air mixing, which according to them, is suppose to add power and inprove fuel economy. can anyone support their claims!?

ALSO...

what's the deal with Prolong's "super lubricants?"
is it really worth all that money!? one would think with such high prices for their products they must work... but do they?!
their claims almost sound too good to be true!
