    We are planning to install a gas saver to our notoriously fuel "efficient" toyota revo VX200. But friend of my father who works at the technological division of DOST told us that installing one would cause the engine to overheat and even melt its internal parts. he reasons that gas savers just feed extra oxygen to the engine which results to a cleaner, more efficient combustion. But the spin off is that temperature will skyrocket thus causing overheating. Who among you has tried Khaos? Is this true?

    khaos = engine knock + overheat = engine failure.

    yung "matitipid" nyo sa gas kulang pa sa magagastos mo pambili ng replacement engine + labor cost.

    at ang masakit talaga dyan sa khaos na yan, mabibilang ka sa listahan ng mga NALOKO. gusto mo ba yun middle name mo e "Victim" ehehehehe!

    Khaos = god of wind

    Khaos + engine = knocking sound... the sound of the god of wind knock holes in your engine to let the wind through it.

    Tanong ko lang: May nagdemanda na ba sa mga nagbebenta or gumagawa ng Khaos dahil nakakasira ng makina yung binibenta nilang product? At paano nakalusot yang ganyang produkto sa market?

    wala kasi law sa pinas punishing "snake oil" salesmen.

    speaking of snake oil, halos malaglag yung kinakain ko sa kakatawa when nasa quiapo ako 3 weeks ago. sayang wala akong dala na camera, kasi andun tinitinda nila, "LANGIS NG AHAS" ehehehehe!
