Note how much the diffrence is on mpg between the Impreza turbo and Impreza sport.

I drive from the Cotsworlds back to Cardiff twice a week and can assure you that 40mpg is easily achievable when the cars serviced regularly and driven correctly ie not thrashing it to within an inch of its life!

fuel consumption!
In reality the turbo may be better on fuel for general use, but commuting crawling with the air con on may drop down to the sub 20's. I am on Subaru number 6 since 1996. First a old style sport 2000. Mid 20's for general cycle, but 35 on a long run. three Foresters, two were AWP and the first was not, again mid twenties general use. A 2003 1.6TS wagon (four wheel drive with high low ratio) and a 2003 Sport GX. This I run on 100 mls acetone per 45 litres and have put a K and N high flow filter element, a F16 battery saver, a Turbo fan and power magnets on the fuel lines. I am getting 31 MPG now and 25mpg before. I do a very mixed driving cycle, lots of town driving so the 31mpg is a big improvement!

who cons who?
Since the beginning of human records, women have succesfully conned men!
I always prefer to experiment, rather than be fed information that is not based on the case you are wanting it for.
The devices were high power niobium magnets placed on the lines as they enter the injectors. The turbo fan changes the engine power delivery and reduces the sharp engine braking.
The acetone works, in Germany some of the super diesel on sale has acetone added.
I work in an industry where many things are empirical, not science. You know it works, but common sense says it will not.
I see a major improvement, you see no potential.
Who has been conned?
This forum is to exchange experiences and supply information. These experiences are documented for you to see. If you fail to open your mind as well as your eyes, the savings will be lost to you. That is your decision.
I am not involved in the selling, marketing or development of these devices. The 5mpg decrease in fuel consumption on a 25 mpg base is good for me. Maybe you are happy to keep forking out for fuel with a smile on your face at the pumps. That is your decision, not mine.
