Well, think about it... if it was really that good... wouldn't it be selling in every single car accessory/workshop there is?

[NUTTTR]

This product is a joke..... a magnet can help you save 27.4% of fuel? Wow...

"NASA technology applied to everyday living provides relief for both consumers and the environment" (??)

If anyone out there is still wondering whether this is true or not, NASA launch vehicles utilise an oxygen / hydrogen mix propellant, so any connection this has to everyday motoring and fossil-fuel combustion is lost on me?


How does NASA develop and use such technologies when they use a fuel whose only emission is H2O and when magnetic technolgies do not form part of either their core business, exploration or R&D missions??

The 'waste' from the SRBs (Solid Rocket Boosters) on the Shuttle launches is... water, with 0-5% of natural atmospheric content being water vapour i.e clouds.


MC G & Dizzy D say "Don't believe the hype"


It's a scam.

But hey, if you buy one of these devices, I've got some great land for sale... little bit wet, but great fixer-upper potential!!!!

i wouldnt immediatly say its no good, a year or 2 back on the news they had the same thing tested on various cars, new, old, small, family and 4wd i think, and the results did make a difference. i dont remember numbers but they showed numbers and it was worth it depending on how many k's u do. it did boost performance, they dyno tested all the cars, lifted the power in the lower revs and made the engine run a lot smoother. it was on today tonight if anyone is interested in finding out about it. it wasnt the exact same brand, but it was the same concept

[EL BURITO]

i can only remember seeing the one with the injecter thingys that reduced the amout of fuel was injected

[16vopl]

this would be similar to the 'hiclone'
that made the air coming into the engine into a 'vortex' supposably making the engine perform better.



NASA dont only have rockets, they have work cars etc that run on petrol and not rocket fuel.
i dont see it being specific to there rockets.

buy it and tell us what you think... if youve got the money get it dynoed before and after...

[Austra SRi]

16vopl...

Thanks for clarifying that NASA has work cars that run on petrol. No really…

My comments were merely clarifying that the press release places this particular device in the context of ‘NASA technology applied to everyday living’. NASA does no associated research linking it to the use or necessity of such a device so if it’s too good to be true…

It’s about improving combustion and efficiency, no matter what the fuel. So as NASA doesn’t refine its own fuels, nor is involved in research on base petroleum products, I’d doubt very much this happens to be running as a NASA ‘side project’.

No need to provide definitive results when it's nothing more than a scam: it would be fitted to every vehicle rolling out of our factories if it really did what it claimed.

Your money is better left in your pocket, m'boy.

[16vopl]

then why arnt hybrid engines fitted to every car as standard out of the factory?
i was just saying that the statement of 'nasa technology applied in every day use' can be justified because its such a broad statement. it could simply be talking about the type of magnet or the plastic used..

like i said buy it and try it, get your car dynoed and see if it works...


anyway there are alot of new things that arnt released in every car as standard for a lot of reasons and thats a whole different arguement...

Settle guys, its no biggy,

This particular world-wire article is written through "public relations" meaning it is biased towards the company. Would you believe that Today-tonight/Current-Affairs can be paid by brands to cover a particular story,
A basic eg, A frozen nuggets company pays TT/CA to cover a story on how little "real" meat there is meat pies, so no-one buys meat pies, but subsitutes their choice for frozen nuggets.
TT/CA, it may mean its true, but most likley it has been paid for.

There are thousands of smaller, non commercialised products in the world that do improve daily living, but because their not endorsed by major brands, they mean nothing.
Its our own perceptions that brands mean everything, and we rely on public relations and advertisments to tell us of a brands popularity.

This product may make a difference, but selling to "never-seen" buyers through "looks like a scam" ebay shop wont help.
They need backed up claims through reliable sources, articles maybe even celebrity endorsements?

[16vopl]

bahahahaha i cant beleive people actually watch that crap.
honestly.

who ever thought aldies was an aussie store needed a smack in the head.

[InsaneAsylum]

there was an add on e-bay a while back for "fuel saving device"

It was a block of wood under the accelerator pedal. the funny thing is, it actually works.
