It is just a spring loaded bypass valve.
It was designed for big hungry carburated V8s to lean out mixture slightly.
Never worked, never will.
Just makes an air leak.

You have no idea what you're talking about mate!

That air is split in 27 ways! 8O

Stage 3 Air Magnetism Process:
Subsequent to Stage 2 the air accumulated is pressurized to go through a cavity charged with Neodymium Magnet. In this final stage, the atoms in the air will break into 2 components; ION NEGATIVE and ION POSITIVE. This results in the mixture of Fuel and Molecule with separated IONs. This combustion mechanism achieves a far more SUPERIOR result.


WTF! 8O Their knowledge of science astounds me.

Are you kidding me? a turbo wouldn't split air 27 ways...

But if your big hungry V8 is cruising at 14 to 1 AFR and the device leans it out to 16 to 1 , then it WILL save fuel.

No point in being 100% negative.

No doubt there are compromises because every modification is a compromise.

No, if I did I wouldn't make any money.

Right, so you are implying that all of this is true:

The “Micro Compressor” is a performance part that can give your vehicle Increased Horse Power, Better Mileage, and Longer Engine Life without any negative effects to your vehicle engine.

Stage 1 The “Micro Compressor” will substantially absorb surrounded air drawn in, through the air filter. ( Refer to Figure A ).

Stage 2 Compression Mechanism:
The driven air will be split in 27 ways. It is then forced through the Air Separator and through the bottleneck point.

Stage 3 Air Magnetism Process:
Subsequent to Stage 2 the air accumulated is pressurized to go through a cavity charged with Neodymium Magnet. In this final stage, the atoms in the air will break into 2 components; ION NEGATIVE and ION POSITIVE. This results in the mixture of Fuel and Molecule with separated IONs. This combustion mechanism achieves a far more SUPERIOR result.


At this stage you might just believe in tooth fairies (or santa, you choose).
If you believe what they wrote, you are obviously scientifically ignorant person.
If you want further debate on this subject I will find you evidence other tests of this (and other "fuel saver" devices) that they do not work and basically are just SCAMS, and designed to milk the money from ignorant people.

I was just referring to your incorrect 100% negative comments.

This can only be resolved with a sudden death game of chicken, both drivers in there cars driving at each other.

Care to point out where it is wrong and why???

More importantly could you point out what claims about this device are true, and why they are true???
