Does the "turbonator" really work?

I noticed this thing called the turbonator today and it says you can gain 35 hp and 31% better gas mileage, but it looks cheesy as hell and I was wondering if anyone had it? Even if it only increases gas mileage I might get it, because at around $70, that ain't bad...

Yes, please do try the search.

However, like dimefury said, the general consensus is that it doesn't work.
