An ecomodding print magazine might fill up with "articles" on turbulators, oiled air filters, fuel rail magnets, etc. Lots of the content in car mags are written by vendors / advertizers.

There is money to be made off of some ecomodders: (PH)EV conversion kits, big batteries, small 12V batteries, etc.
