Default Is this Real? How does it work?

Not that I want to save gas or anything.. but a friend think that I am more experienced and he asked me.. so I brought this in to the almighty H-TechERS..

I think it just pinches off your fuel line so you can't floor it....Or make it running lean.... Which is good for the mileage!!!

Huummm??? We all know General Motor is well renound for it's efficient, low gas milage engine . This adds to the list of crappy products design to help you save fuel. From the "drawing" it seem's this device better align the fuel molecules for a better combustion or some BS like that. Unless it is free, I would not count on recovering your investment via fuel economy for a long time.

I have a Brooklyn bridge for sale. Mint condition, like new.

...and I also have the electric supercharger... it compliments the tornado air intake perfectly.

LOL

What is it made from?
It is a MATCHED PAIR of tuned custom sealed Neodymium Super inductors that generate a frequency resonance between its two faces.

What makes the FUEL SAVER unique?
Operates on the principle of RESONANCE, utilizing a double chamber frequency with phased frequency modulation.
What a joke. $90 for a pair of magnets and a bunch of BS lingo.

actually i use that same system on my car for years. In Europe its called ECO-flow.

it's suppose to ionize the fuel and so increasing the octane level, originating more explosion inside the motor. Personally i didn't feel sh*t after installing it, but since i bought it, and it wasn't that expensive, might as well use it...

i heard that some car companies are developing something similar to provide better mileage for their models, besides other benefits, but who knows?

once I get my headers, as soon as mike gets them in, I will buy one and make a run or two with it on the dyno since I will dyno for the headers and tune the VAFC.
We'll see if it works or not, 3 month 100% money back guarantee. I am interested in the validity of their claims, of course they will come back and say read the disclaimer, "it may increase", they did that **** to my friend when he decided to buy the tornado. hahaha

haha...that was a pretty good joke -- anyways, i'd wait off on something like that till i saw testing on a wider range of cars in a variety of conditions. everyone's coming out with all types of inventions, but it doesn't mean just go out and get it because of a few BOLD lines. another thing...i wouldn't be surprised if they got those results out of a domestic since domestic engines NEED that type of improvement...who knows IT COULD possibly decrease your engine performance since they most likely didn't test it a car like the R.

POWER-TECH not V-TEC...

i think that may be one obvious reason to stay from a company like that...they can't even get the engines they're describing right -- lol!!!
