If I remember the study done on it a while back. They saw no change in performance or gas milage. In fact some where slightly reduced. You are putting a restriction in airflow pattern. One reviewer even suggested that some of the more flimsy designs could be dangerous for your engine in the event a vane broke off.
The swirling air just gets chopped back up inside the intake manifold when its split among the cylinders. Your probably better off just doing a TB port.

Imagine getting 35 hp from a piece of air restricting plastic for your intake, but only getting around 5 hp from an aftermarket air intake system or maybe 7 for a CAI. That is the funniest thing i have ever heard.
