Yah right. Its bullshit
Between the friction of the air being squeezed into a smaller space and the smaller turbine the end result would be less not more
I'm sure that the turbine turns with more force than it would out in the open but its also smaller. Make a turbine the size of the mouth of the funnel at the top and place it at the same level and lets see what they have.
