Default Embedded Ion Tire Valve Stem Caps with NANO TECHNOLOGY

Stolen from RS25...

This could be a real secret weapon for you auto-x guys!

Quote:
Gas Mileage Booster (GMB) Tire Valve Caps looks like a common valve stem cap but contain embedded mineral ions that have a dramatic effect on fuel economy, tire/brake performance and extended life, as well as improving overall vehicle ride. GMB Ion Technology modifies molecular vibration for a positive effect in heat energy dissipation. Increased gas & diesel economy, improved performance and handling, and extended tire life are among the benefits of using GMB. Testing on a range of passenger vehicles, light trucks, performance cars, and commercial vehicles has shown increases in fuel mileage of up to 25% and extended tire life/ brake life of up to 30%(dependent on vehicle type fuel use and driving conditions) results may vary. Test drivers and customers have indicated a marked improvement in road grip, reduction of tire and road noise, and a general smoothing of vehicle ride.

Dude, with this and my Tornado Fuel Saver, my car will be making petroleum products, not consuming them.

I was thinking about adding about fives sets of those to my tires. Obviously I would have to tape them to the inside diameter of the rim, but with that setup I should get Zero Gallons per mile.

no no no. It clearly states that you can only use 4 per tire. 4 at 25% each would give you a 100% fuel savings. 5 would be 125% and we all know there is no such thing as more then 100%.

Unless its the last game of the season then you can give more than 100%.

Wow, I thought they couldn't do any worse when I saw the gas saving magnet you put on your oil pan.

Oh, and since this thread has gone no-where anyway, I thought I'd point out that Bob just found a vibrator in the door pocket of some dude's Frontier...

Dude, that's fucking awesome! I was frankly surprised that it was still reading pressure! It's not really farther away from the receiver than the rear tires tho, so I guess it makes sense!
