1) Speak with the company about any guarantee
2) Run back to back test with and without the device under identical driving conditions.
3) Report the findings so that the device's value can truly be judged.
I agree with your comment about data. Anything new in an old market (not just automotive) is often dismissed as ineffective, usually on grounds that a product has been around so long, by virtue of age, every single possible variable must have been tried and disproven already.

I've read some other forum and magazine fodder on this product. The CEO of this company has issued the generic cookie cutter info to every media outlet they've been in, so I doubt calling them will unveil any new information about the product.

My carb is about as well tuned as it can get, so the next air/fuel purchase I make will be EFI.

Just interested in the perspective of people here, whom are much more logical and coherent as opposed to other forums.

Thanks for the replies so far, very interesting opinions and information.
