Looks like it would work, I am thinking its worth trying this to check if its really true

But if you indeed buy it and try it out and can notice a significant improvement, I will be the first to eat my words.

hahahah...sadly, no I don't think Nissan would put this in there cars even if it was proven to help. They're not that nice.

I showed it to this guy at my work. He told me he had an old 4runner that he put this thing in 2001. He usually got like 190 to a tank. After he added this he got like 230-235 average. So it did get like an extra 40 miles out of a tank. He also told me the car felt a little bit stronger. He is a cool guy, I am pretty sure he is not BSing me.
I think I'll try it.

Ford tested it... FORD!!!!
Remember as you back from the product, do not make eye contact or run as this will induce a chase response.
And never try to stare down the feral product, it will see this as a threat.

AS PER M.LYNCH, EXXON-MOBIL RESEARCH ENGINEER:

dont have any of the offcial test jargon I see at work. Also if breaking
up the molecules really made it more efficient dont you think refineries
would do it ahead of time? I think that whole part is BS. If this
'resonating wave' or what ever cracks the molecules its just gonna make
lighter hydro carbons, like butane and propane. Fuels made to a certain
mol wt and octane so it will fire at the right time in your engine, light
fuels wont ignight with the same power or at the same time, it would
probably cause knocking. Also any cracking that was going on at the
molecular level would cause enourmous amounts of heat. That little
plastic thing couldnt handle it.
My guess is it is either a) completely phony or b) it does give you better
fuel economy but not by the means it says, like maybe it just restricts
the amount of gas that can get to your engine so its taking away power
basically making your car a 4 cylinder. If that was what you wanted you
wouldnt have bought a maxima you would have bought a sentra.

1. Neodymium is just a rare earth magnet. dime a dozen.
2. Super Conductors, the holy grail of electrical apps, requires TONS of cooling of the super conductor. "High temp" super conductors have to be cooled to -217 F to become super conducting. In other words they are lying when they call it "super conducting", unless they've somehow firgured out how to keep it that cool.
3. Magnetism, even from a super conductor, is a weak force and will not break atomic bonds. If it did people would melt when they got MRIs.
4. The whole concept of getting energy from gas is breaking the hydrocarbon bonds (a.k.a. burning). If you broke those bonds before it entered the engine, you'd get less energy out of the gas.
So you basically get a magnet wrapped around your fuel line. Save youself some money, get some magnets off your Mom's fridge and tape them on the fuel line. same thing.

Ford, GM, and Chrysler would kill for a device like this if it actually worked. They always struggle to meet the CAFE standards. Ford even went as far as to fill their engines with 5w-20 oil for the .5% gas mileage increase it gives in exchange for the protection that a 5w-30 oil gives.

Wow.. you took those words out of my mouth... i can see at least there is someone else here besides me that paid attention in chemistry class
