I hightly doubt it will do anything.

hondo. you got 35mpg not because you installed a magnet but because you WENT ON VACATION this means lots of constant ZERO start and stop steady state highway driving. ALL cars get boost in fuel economy when you do this. that is normal.
We said this and suggested testing methods a few pages (and months) ago but that wasn't taken up by Hondo.

What we have now is some data of Hondo on leave with magets and Hondo on leave without. We have no idea if the driving, car load, temps, weather, tyre wear / pressure, or indeed the fuel type / source was the same. So we have no idea if even "Hondo With" compares to "Hondo Without"

As we also said a few pages ago without ABA this is pointless.

Good try, but lets do something more scientific.
