Default The solution to high gas prices and oil dependency!

I can't believe this hasn't gotten more pub--improve your gas mileage by a factor of six!

A magnetic resonance effect, and a lightening storm occurs within the reactor. As fuel passes through this storm, it's cracked into it's elements, and thus enters a 4th state of matter we're calling plasma. The plasma fuel continues back to the engine for a cool and efficient burn, using the PICC's own computer system for injection control and fuel management.

No Exhaust!
It's been learned that when running on plasma fuel, the exhaust can be sent back to the intake and the engine will run in a closed loop without any exhaust!

Also, apparently if you have a "blue honda" you will get the best results:

So far in our tests, 4 cylinder cars have leaned towards the higher end of the increase spectrum, while 6 and 8 cylinder cars are closer to 50% or anywhere in that range.

* Toyota Corolla 4 cylinder car went from 23 to 60 mpg
* Hyundai Accent 4 cylinder car went from 30 to 75 mpg
* The Blue Honda (most recently) went from 30mpg to 100mpg!

None of those ratios are a factor of six. Sounds like a future episode of MythBusters.

Perhaps they should have tested their red Honda for better results? That web page just sounds so technical, saying things like "Hydro-Assist Fuel Cell Technology" and "special 'burned-in' rod of cold-rolled steel, tuned by it's [sic] length."

How could it be wrong?

As we've all come to know over the years, blue always runs better than red.

I disagree. How many RBs in blue have gone on to a future in the NFL compared to red?

You are correct. Once they shed that crimson burden they seem to run like the wind.

But the crimson got them there.
