![Question](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Some time ago a someone was on about a simple device that fits along the fuel line I think, that would give more MPG. The results of this device were then going to be posted on here for all to see. Anyone know the result of this as I aint seen nothing on it.
Myself think its prob a load of rubbish but was just interested as to the result.

Sorry mate - all these "get more mpg" things are a load of cr@p. They _claim_ to either smooth out the fuel flow (the magnetic ones and such) or make the airflow more turbulent. Neither of which seems to make much difference ![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
If you want better mpg, buy a lower performance car. If you want more miles-per-pound, convert to LPG - I did (Legacy 2.5 Estate) and it's the best money I've spent on the car!!!!!!

I think you are referring to some sort of bleed air device which works on the over-run. I considered it carefully but could not see how it could have any effect on a Turbo Subaru, maybe something with carbs would benefit slightly. Then in a recent issue of CCC Mag there was a test on a car with EFI and the conclusion was it achieved nothing. Since then I have seen nothing so I guess the people marketing it cannot refute CCCs findings.
