Found this on the net.
Take a look at the link. It debunks most of the 'promises' on fuel saving.

Apprently I am using one of these because it is 'FREE' and it is very minimum improvements.
Then Again I could be wrong, I have been using airconditioning in my car and getting an average of 500km for full tank in city driving. I used to be only 480 with airconditioning off most of the times.

Product was from Singapore but made in UK. I have seen some fuel savers for about $30.00 includes shipping? Again it is very debatable. IF this is not correct then why some car companies are using this technology in some of their cars? (Unless I am wrong correct me) but it was claimed that a few of these companies already have such technology in their fuel system. I heard Audi uses it and some others. apprently Mazda work poorly with these. I can state the source if you want.

But if you are happy with the current raise in fuel prices, what is $30.00 just to try?

i think its all bogus........ but i've never tried them..........:redface:

singapore have tons of sh!t relating to gagets used to save fuel.. "more horsepower and torque", "better throttle response" etc etc....

honestly never tried it cos i'm not very verse in this area...... so i cant REALLY comment on them...

Nexus care to share your thoughts on the air chargers they have here..fuel crackers, and extreme spark optimizer... can this stuff work????????lol

They supposedly turn the petrol into a steam so that it apparently requires less energy to make a spark and when liquid is turned into vapour it increases in volume by approximately 5000x so ya use less fuel in the process..i personaly think its absolute bull**** because they cant actualy get it to the temperature to vaporise it but hell if ya wanna tr go for it

Whats the point posting and get flame by people who will say you are bs or is not true?

Like I said this was given to me free and I dont really complain about it nor going to recommend it as it will affect my reputation here if is bs. I will however say that it "seems" to work for a bit of improvement in fuel consumption. Again not long enough to say that is working.

Hmm... the fact that I got a proper dealer who gave me this to trial on, is full 30 days refund if you are unhappy with it, no obligations. My friend is doing this line and he gave it to me free to test. From my opinion (not yours), I cant say I am using more fuel and though it may save a little it can be even only 3% depending on your driving. It is right to say that it could be BS for just 3% against their claim of 25% or 15% in my case the thing promise UP TO 15% not guranteed that it be that much. Their company also claims(but who doesnt) that the others are false etc.......and have a plan on which, what cars were tested.

I will keep you guys posted, but dont go saying 'you are greatly suckered etc....' I cant be bothered with those comments here in the thread as is fully volunteer and as I said not advertisting for their company nor condeming the product, strictly keep the info for your own opinions and judgements. I have two type of these and will try both and also show you the pics of them. Again I am not selling them, they were given to me to try.

Cheers!
