The article doesn't specify at what speed this speed increase occurs so it's quite meaningless a statement. Quite how the tiny ring is supposed to develop 12 - 30% more thrust (which is what a 10 mph increase suggests over a range of air speeds) needs explaining. Increases in top speed are more than likely due to less power loss to drag than increased thrust due to more or less free expansion in an open, short metal ring which has no forward facing reaction surfaces on which engine-heated air could exert pressure.
