thats no hiclone...
thats a fuel polerizer
(and hes got the checkvalve installed the wrong way...)

Does it allow the engine to burn hydrogen hydroxide ?....:twisted::wasntme:

I realize that the device is meant to be mounted around a fuel line rather than installed in the intake. My meaning was that in the world of instant performance upgrades not only does the fuel polarizer increase power and economy but it also reduces emissions and cleans carbon deposits from the engine, I don't believe that the Hi-clone can make this claim. Although I already have a Hi-clone I had to remove it as the performance increase was quite frightening, my Discovery 1 V8 became quite a handful to drive, I didn't get a chance to dyno it but I estimate that the engine was outputting double or more its normal output. Actually upon reflection a vehicle fitted with a fuel polarizer and a Hi-clone could pose a serious risk on the roads, only an experienced race car driver should operate such vehicles. I'll make it a priority to write to my local member so that legislation gets passed quickly to control such devices. I've contacted the ebay seller asking questions about compatibility with devices such as Hi-clones, whether the fuel polarizer can be installed in the intake and if drive line modifications are recommended to handle the expected power increase.

Unless its a modification to the fuel system to control the power increase I'll ask the seller
Does it allow the engine to burn hydrogen hydroxide
Good question I'll ask the seller, but a better fuel would be Hydrazine

Hope it doesn't burn dihydrogen oxide, that **** causes cancer and makes electrical components fail.

That stuff is deadly... Kills thousands every year.
There should be a petition to NSW government to out law it immediately, if not sooner.
And especially to prohibit it from the proscribed city zone late at night, just to ensure the full and complete safety of the citizenry.

It probably contains a good deal of oleaginous colubrinus in order for it to perform as described....
I've forgotten its common name... ;)

I've asked the seller a Very Important Question.... Interesting to see his 'scientific' (or 'Marketing') answer....:twisted::twisted::twisted:
- Asked if it still worked in the Southern Hemisphere, seeing as it was made in Germany, and therefore the background magnetic field is opposite to ours....
Sat late AM, and it has'nt appeared in his listing...

You all missed the important bits - it's RED and it has GTE on it. Surely this has to be for track use only - couldn't unleash this on the streets...:p
Will a Landrover drive line handle this?

You guys must be on drugs,,
the owners of that resort on Fraser put a polarizer on their fleet of ferries/barges. 10K a go. hoping for a decrease in fuel costs.
so it must work,, right?

Had a chat to one of these polariser salesmen once, who guaranteed all money back if I didn't get an increase in mileage, as long as I did a full tune and filter & oil change at the same time (I had a clapped out old Sigma at the time).
Instead, I offered to pay him all of my fuel savings for the next two years in lieu of the purchase cost. For some reason, he turned down my offer. Crazy.:cool:

Just install it the other way around to change poles on the magnets

That's awesome!
If you hook it up to a small engine and an alternator, you'll get a perpetual-motion machine. If you buy two, then you can sell the excess power back into the grid.

Sorry, the title of the thread put me out a little - I already change my Hi-clone every 5000km - Doesn't everybody else? No wonder people think it's a scam - the fins on them ablate with use and wont induce the optimum voticies needed for complete combustion unless you keep them clean and sharp and have the helix angles checked. I think I read somewhere
that they can be reconditioned for half the cost if they are not too worn......

Following the interest in these two fantastic products I think it is time to do a group buy for a packaged set. (Fuel magnet and electric turbo)
I'm happy to collect list of members wishing to join buy.
ALSO, with the electric turbo, the air will be suitably swerled, so considering taking HiCyclones for trade.
Just reply to this message, and add your name and quantity to the end.

So much aeronautical engineering to achieve that shape in such a small space, they must work for NASA, maybe its out of the Skunkworks? :o
Could we consider a triple package for those of us without the Hiclone?

Ooh ooh ooh!! He's even gotta my name on him! If I put one on the exhaust pipe and use the little DC motor as a generator connected to another one on the air intake......
I had a Kombi that ran for years on the residual energy from John Bonham's legendary half-hour drum solo in The Song Remains the Same.

Yeah, does have a certain smell about it.
Buyers with hi clones fitted would be advised to check which way the hiclone is swirling the air. There is potential for saving to be nullified if the electric turbo is swirling the air one way but the hiclone swirls it the other way thus cancelling each other out.

...with both the turbo-supercharger and super-turbogenerator connected at the same time, it would be like a perpetual motion engine! :o
You would have to install a really strong isolator switch, otherwise you'd never be able to turn off the engine. :cool:

Make sure you get one optimized for the southern hemisphere or you will have problems with the earths coriolis effect decreasing the efficiency of the swirling action.

What I think you should be really careful of isn't the nullified effect but the opposite, like a standing wave they can cancel or double. I think I now know how those sink holes appear and its got nothing to do with ground water erosion.

The swirling issue is not a problem in the new improved model as they have modified the bedester board to compensate depending on which planet you are on.

I sent the vendor a question regarding the opposite magnetic field we have down here in Oz... Oddly, it has'nt appeared on his listing, nor has he replied.
Maybe the message got it's polarity reversed on the way up and it was received as a 'statement' and not a question.
Then there's the Coanda Effect over the vanes, that once again my be opposite to that experienced in Europe.
