$5000 for a license and 20% ($70-$100) of sales back to him?

He has a car that went from 17mpg to over 100? This guy should be a Nobel prize winner.

Older cars send 50% or more of their fuel out the exhaust? Wow! The engineers should have been getting tutored by this guy because they are clearly doing it wrong.


Seems legit.

I dont know if it is legit but after couple hours of viewing youtube testimonies, could all be bull****, but I have wasted and heard many others wasted monies on the pursuit of horsepower. To date the only and seemingly for sure horsepower gain and gpm gain has been going to the E-fan, and that is only from testimonies I have seen but all report a HP gain and for the vast majority goes un-contested. ( I am actually waiting on my e-fan) Unlike the tuners and cold air intakes which are like ripe with the believers and non believers. So I made the leap >$400 and bought a gadgetman grooved throttlebody for my 2002 fx4 5.4L Lariat. I will update you all on it. If it works..even if I get additional 2MPG vs the 10 I have seen advertised, I will be happy with the purchase but it is also supposed to give me more horsepower as well as a clean exhaust. I am excited to get and see the results. worse case i blew some money... done that lots of times on a weekend binge...call the credit card company and fight the purchase.. believe it or not I am on the seat of my panties and can hardly wait. As far as trusting the big car companies, i believe they purposely build the cars the way they do..to bleed the money out of us....just like CD, and before that cassettes and before that 8-tracks...they had the technology they just slowed played us... or a more appropriate example..turbos it seems all vehicles coming with turbos...but they been around since the before the 70's I think...
