se350z Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 hi everyone, i saw something on eBay called "turbomax mag" and im not really too sure if it works or not, i just wanted to share it with you guys. did any one try this? Quote
Railgun Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 I read up on these things "years" ago, and actually bought a set for my Celica when I had one. They are good for hanging notes on the fridge door, as they are very strong, but from what I've read about them to date, thats about all the good they do! Quote

jenic Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 I'm confused why any 350Z owner, or any performance car owner, would be so worried about fuel consumption. You knew what you were taking on when you bought it, if you wanted economy you'd of bought a diesel! Quote

I think so pal, the BS science they hit you with sounds good (I read all the gumf on their website), but if clagging a few magnets onto your fuel line meant you burned less, then everyone would be putting it on as standard to make their consumption figures look better! I'd love to be wrong though! Quote
DannyBoy Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Given that 'Turbomax' also make what they call a 'vortex generator' that saves you 30% on fuel (free-spinning fan that sits in your intake pipe, totally useless), i'd say the likelihood of this being anything other than a complete con is pretty low. If it looks too good to be true it probably is. DB Quote
Ricey Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 There is a far more effective alternative. Send me £20 and I will pray for lower fuel economy for you. For that I'll pray really hard, twice a day......thats a Riceys Triple Plus Money Back Guarantee Quote

techinstaller Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 we could save fuel just by driving like miss daisy but who would want to ? ijust happy to pay for the big grin i get when i hit the loud pedal...in fact im grinning know just thinking about hitting the loud pedal Quote
DannyBoy Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 ^^^^ That actually would be more effective Hydrocarbons do not conduct electricity and therefore could only possibly be affected by diamagnetic effect, which is so small it might as well not exist and even if it did have an effect it would only be to make the molecules move away from the magnet an undetectably small amount. It is NOT going to 'change the alignment' or cause any effect on a molecular level. It just cant. Based on the actual science that i know, I would have to say anything claiming to magnetically influence fuel is total bumf. End Rant DB Quote

Seriously.....give me £20 and I'll send you a 100 pack of these magic beans - put 1 in your tank at each fill up and you'll get 50mpg Now I know it seems far fetched but a gypsy woman blessed them so they really do work.
