Needs some colorful, rotating LEDs added. Then you can SEE the HP being added.

Likely Fine Print in the directions with it:

Clear piece of intake piping (not included) necessary for full visual performance boost. However, for only an extra $9.95 a performance boost indicator LED can be placed in the cabin to monitor unit effectiveness. Perceived performance boost may be greater than actual performance boost.
