It supposedly saves gas AND will could get you to 100 mpg
go to this site http://www.getmostmpg.com/
i think its a really cool idea, im not sure how much it is yet. What do you guys think about it?

The ole BS meter is on the rise with this one.

:iagree: Yup, pure BS!
You've got to see their video! They actually try to fool us into thinking they're running an engine on pepsi, coke, A1 steak sauce, aqua velva.:lol:

I think what they're demonstrating by doing that isn't that the engine runs on that, but that the PICC converts those fluids into the elements they're made of... probably mostly carbon.
I've got to disagree with y'all on this one... I'm no scientist, but what I did understand made sense, and I can say with certainty that the catalytic converter burns fuel. The outlet is hundreds of degrees hotter than the inlet, that energy is coming from somewhere. If that fuel is instead burnt in the engine you WILL get beter mileage. I don't believe you could possibly get a 100% increase, but even a 10% increase is a start. I filled out a quote request, we'll have to wait and see how much they are... My cat's about rusted through and if the PICC is within a hundred or two of a factory one, I may try it out. Of course that's if I can meet in person with someone and get the address of the person whose ass I'll be kicking if it's a scam.
EDIT:
I talked to Dale Webb from the company that makes the PICC. They have a class to become a certified trainer for the company, to train mechanics how to install and tune it. The first day is free, and if you want to stay the next two/three days (3rd optional), it's $1,000. I live in Iowa, and the class is in New Jersey. Even having the demonstration for free, I'll be spending about $1,000 to drive there and back. Does anyone here who is a mecanic (they prefer ASE certified Master mechanic) live in the New Jersey area and would be willing to check it out? Like I said, they let you take the first day FREE, and if you decide it's a scam or for whatever reason want to leave, you can walk out and not owe anything. Dale seems like an honest guy, and having the free day offer, I don't see how it could be a scam. Even though I'm risking a lot by taking the trip, he stands to gain nothing if it doesn't work.

Before anyone buys into this I would like you all to read the information on the site I will link below. These systems are a complete waist of money. I have a small scientific background and these things make no sence what so ever. For one they claim that they turn the fuel into a "plasma". For one a vehicle can not produce enouph energy to turn the fuel into a plasma and even funnier if you pump a plasma into an internal combustion engine it will die. This is another site that uses pointless scientific terms and details to sell a pointless product. These sites feed off high gas prices and read the wording it is all open ended comments. I would really like you all to read the scientific proof that these kits do not work.
