> whats your thoughts on this?

Thoughts? Snake oil. Scam. Pseudo science mumbo jumbo. Gullible customers who don't understand junior school chemistry then try and justify their purchase with feedback letters designed to convince themselves they havn't been ripped off.

Same as loads of other similar devices with similar names, some variation on fuel catalyst being the usual.

Check out a US comment on a similar device here. And a general article covering the claims of such devices here.

DTI did a trial on these devices a while back and it ended up with some companies being prosecuted by the advertising standards people. But other companies claims are so vague they couldn't prosecute them. Some of the parasites cashing in on these devices now have the bare faced cheek to use selective quotes from the DTI tests as part of their sales literature.

Steer clear.
