I started with the factory engine fuel management system. Changing to HP2g Skip-Fire.

The HP2g Skip-Fire variable displacement shuts off fuel to cylinders and it also rotating the cylinders of fire. Dropping out fuel to cylinders (after normal engine operation temperature). The engine is still opening and closing the valves brings in cool outside air which is introduced to a HOT CYLINDER. This allows the air to expand making the engine = STIRLING ENGINE effect (From 1816)

In testing I have seen an average increase of 20% in fuel economy on gas engines and 30% in diesel engines (including SEMI's)
