I have been hearing these ads on the radio. Claims that a stainless-steel device that installs in minutes, can save 25-40 % on gas. Without going to the website, Im assuming that it's one of those air intake spinners. anyone have an opinion on this ?

Save your money altogether by not buying these ripp-offs.

Our NITROGEN-ON-DEMAND technology utilizes the existing nitrogen in our air to INCREASE GAS MILEAGE ON YOUR VEHICLE BY 20% - 40%.

Sure ...

These people need to be reported. I'm so getting sick of this.

Maybe we need to put a Unicorn Special together and bust these folks and others like them.

Hi, I'm Dr. Whizly and we here at Scamlab, Inc. have produced data that proves whatever this person is selling works. Look at our spreadsheets! Aren't they pretty? And look! Here's a testimonial from Fanny S. in Roanoke. Before the gizmo, I was getting 10 mpg in my 78 Lincoln 4 door, after the easy installation I am now getting 40 mpg and my love handles disappeared!

Give me a break.

Our NITROGEN-ON-DEMAND generators require NO Mechanic for installation, NO Electrical Wiring, NO Fuses, NO Relays, NO Amp Readers, NO Corrosive Electrolyte, NO Water, NO Modifications, NO Extra Parts, NO Maintenance and NO Running Costs.
Wow, with all that NO, I hope it costs NO money....

1. Will this this affects the oxygen sensor and on board computer and it will adjust after installation and reduce my M.P.G?
With our nitrogen on demand generators, the gas connects to the PCV which is NOT near to the oxygen sensor so it will not be affected. Hence, the on board computer will not adjust because it will not sense the presents of the nitrogen gas.
More free presents of nitrogen gas, cool!

Nitrous oxide? No. "nitro gas" An unknown substance.
Direct injection? No. Sucked in through the PCV port.
Pump? Nope.

I'd like to know what is inside that thing. Somewhere they say a catalyst, but I don't know of anything that can convert nitrogen into anything useful in a single pass, at about room temperature and pressure. Simply amazing, and almost $1000 to boot!
