Kollade upp Ecotec. ASA (advertising standards authority) är ett oberoende institut som prövar "falsk marknadsföring" i England. Om ni går till länken så ser ni att de (Ecotec) gång på gång blivit anmodade att sluta upp med sin marknadsföring just därför att deras testresultat är falsk marknadsföring med felaktiga tester.

Ecotek PLC are marketing a device in England which clamps on to your intake manifold. According to the doublespeak on their site, this device improves performance by collapsing the manifold vacuum so that when the throttle is reapplied, there'll be slightly more fuel in the air-fuel mix and that will improve the throttle response. The hype also claims that the device creats greater turbulence and swirl, which promote better suspension of fuel molecules. And finally, the all-encompassing claims of better fuel economy, better acceleration and more power are all present and correct.
One slight problem. This device claims to work during overrun - when you take your foot of the accelerator and the car uses engine-braking. In those conditions, 100% of modern fuel-injected cars cut off the fuel supply. And on older carburettor engines, there's no proof this device does anything at all. In fact there's so little proof that this product has been complained about enough in England to reach the advertising standards authority. You can read their report on it here. In short : waste of money. Once again ask yourself the same question : (all together now) "If it's so good, why don't manufacturers fit it to their cars as standard?"
Slutsats: Slöseri med pengar "Om den är så bra, varför monterar inte biltillverkarna in det i sina bilar som standard?"
Vidare så för den ett sånt oväsen och därför har en placeboeffekt likt öppet sportfilter som har samma "effekthöjning mentalt".

Visst är det tillverkat bilar efter 1973, men vem bryr sig?
