Guys i was surfing the bay today and came across this item, it claims to improve the cars performance by 35 bhp and to improve economy by 33%. Now I am not sure whether this works so i figured you guys might, so what do you all think?

Afternoon all,

Remember one thing - all manufacturers are under extreme pressure to reduce fuel consumption and emissions and produce power without fossil fuel consumption. If this could be achieved by "bolting on" a so called "fuel saver" or "power booster" I rather think that every car would come with them as standard!

Been around longer than most (nearly 60 years) - seen it all before - several times.

Mac.

concerning all rubbish bolt on mods the above is true, if an engine has a particularly poor efficiency to begin with then it is possible to gain in both economy and power but not as straightforward as a simple stick on resistor, fan blade, magic potion or whatever rubbish they think of next! :lol:
