I dont know how many of you have seen this product, but I figured I would share anyway. I saw this last night while flipping through some channels. I get caught up in the info-mercials, but this one took the cake. I will save my thoughts until some other see it....

There is also a nice vid which "explains" how the product works.

Dmention7, you are fairly technical when it comes to the inner workings of cars. My thought was they are adding a chemical for a more violent explosion in the combustion chamber. Now, this will help with more power and a more complete burn. But, it will also raise the issue of pre-ignition and detonation. I was watching this last night thinking about the nasty side effects people may have with their "improved fuel economy." ::rollseyes::

Sorry man, I've just seen way too many of these gimmicky gas milage improvers, and none of them have ever been shown to do a damn thing. This one seems especially bogus since their business model appears to pretty much be a pyramid scheme.

The explanations of how their "product" works reads more like L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics than anything else--made up terms and scientific-sounding explanations that don't really explain anything at all. They have a 3 page technical report that the owner claims as proof of the stuff working, but all it is is a lab's analysis that concludes the fuel's properties have not been changed.

What they're preying on it people's willingness to suspend their disbelief when it comes to saving money, but it fails the classic "sounds too good to be true" test miserably.

Bottom line, I'd rather put a turbonator in my intake than drop one of these in my gas tank.

Boost fluid? I guess I am not familiar with that. I use DOT-4 for my blinkers.
