    Anyone know anything about/tried the Turbomag X-T on ebay? - claims 10-22% fuel savings, guaranteed.

    Garbage. Just like the Tornado or anything else out there with similar claims.

    wasnt that shot down by mythbusters on discovery channel?

    heh

    i bet u the only way that could possibly work is if you put the entire fuel line under a magnetic
    field. once the fuel gets out of the magnetic field , it "clumps" up again

    On a general note, given the pressure on car companies for mileage, you can *BET* if it worked, it'd be shipping in new cars.

    Another case of 'if it sounds too good to be true'...
