But in some magazines for tuning here they said that this was a myth about a company 3 years before but now a new company makes them and compared this two products and the new one is working in S2000 for example 15% economy 5% performance not bad for 50 euros part.

Complete Scam

Does not work, fuel is covalently bonded. Basically a magnet will only affect ionic bonded compounds. Therefore magnetising petrol is usless.

What he said, completely an utterly scientifically demolished in one sentence.

Chemically and thermodynamically impossible. Besides, if car manufacturers could improve fuel efficiency by 15% by sticking a few magnets around a pipe you'd think they'd of caught on by now..you can't exactly patent the idea

fuel saver?...rev less, drive slower. It's the only way

Rubbish,

I reckon i'll put fridge magnetics on my fuel tank, i'll easily make 300bhp then

complete pish water! there are ways to improve your fuel economy but that is definitely not one of them. magnets.... you'd be better off sticking a load of them to the front of your car and get a motorist in front to pull you along.
