    i beg to disagree and correct me if i am wrong but during idling the temp inside the combustion chamber falls, so the gasoline is not sufficiently vaporized. this would cause combustion to become unstable if the carburator were not designed to prevent this by supplying more fuel in order to make the mixture richer. normally, in such cases, this extra supply of fuel causes the air-fuel ration to become richer, about 11:1... thats why they do the emission test on gasoline engines on idle, when it is where the vehicle is producing more carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons

    from what i gathered P6,500 daw ang price ng Super Turbo Charger. Tapos u have to call them pa to reserve dahil wala pa daw stock. Biglang yaman siguro ngayon si Mr. Planas, ang dami daw orders at di kaya ng production nila. Do you think worth yung price nya? mejo mahal sa tingin ko.

    Mahal. Pa-tune up ko na lang makina ko for that price.

    Pansin niyo, karamihan ng demo vehicles na gamit nila ay mga luma at mukhang hindi alaga?

    OK...i think i will go out on a limb and call BS on this one. i've seen so many similar products that were nothing but scams like the different variants of the electric 'ram air' intake turbine and other such mumbo-jumbo.

    i also find it hard to believe that the automakers that spend billions of dollars in passenger car, F1, emissions and engine R&D could not have figured it out. i can't imagine how much money the US importers spend just to make their vehicles pass emissions laws so they can sell in the US...

    i am no engine expert, but from everything i've read there are only a few ways to increase the "combustion efficiency" of an engine:

    1. cool the air coming into the engine
    2. compress/pressurize the air
    3. use higher octane (more 'explosive' content) gasoline

    if there is another way, and this guy is truly a genius and not a rip-off artist, then i apologize. but somehow i doubt it...

    the usual scams for increasing fuel milage and/or engine power:
    -magnets along the fuel line
    -non-moving turbine fan blades in your engine intake
    -computer fan type device in your engine intake
    -by-pass type air-intake to be installed after the EFI sensor or carb
    -metal/alloy balls in your fuel tank

    6,500 hell no! I'll just buy myself a brandnew 3D AGP card.

    or have my ride re tinted.

    normal attitude na ng pinoy ang pagiging skeptic. Yung mga negative claims sa 'gadget' ni Planas, dapat it should be supported by actual experience. Hindi yung pure kuru-kuro lang.

    Kung sino man ang gumamit or gumagamit ng super turbo charger ni Planas, pa-post naman yung mga after effects.

    Judging by the number of people who are buying this device at the price it is being sold, no, Filipinos are not a bunch of skeptics.

    mga pards it is my first time here....i have been using this device for 7 years now. actually si mr. planas ay kilala ko and matagal nang partner ng father ko. actually father ko ay ang exclusive manufacturer ng device na ito. and we are actually in the closing stages of our negotiations with the prospective financier. hopefully in the coming weeks ahead we will have enough capital to finally market it. tama ka boldventure this product is a 30 year old product kasi i remember nasa elementary pa ako alam ko na itong product na ito. if anyone is interested in this product you can drop me a note.

    mr planas offers a money back guarantee. if you do not see any difference in your gas consumption within 6 months, you can get your money back. let me explain bakit never heard itong product na ito. mr planas approached so many policitians way back during marcos time (aquino, erap, ramos, cory, gloria). pero halos lahat hinihingan siya ng lagay as in hundreds of millions. even the rich wont agree to this arrangement. meron pa ngang LTO chief na humihingi ng 70-30 sharing. 70% sa LTO chief. Ang kapal ng mukha nuon. pero this is what i am telling you guys, the time has come for this device. matagal nang nag sacrifice si mr planas and my father to develop this device. P6.500 might be expensive at first but if you consider you ll get 10%-50% savings on ur consumption madali nyong mabawi iyon. i remember when i was young, mr planas was approached by an indian firm. they would like to buy from him the technology for some million of dollars. pero ayaw nyang magaya yun sa fluorescent na ang nakinabang ay ang U.S. He still insists that we filipinos benefit from it. kaya naghintay siya ng tamang panahon and now is the time. mr planas is a man of principle i can attest to that. i am no con artist. i work for a multinational company in makati. why would the father of secretary dayrit testify for its effectiveness 20 years na nyang ginagamit iyon. the taping for the mgb episode was done way back january 2003. pero gusto ng mgb i test muna bago i release. so after more than 6 months when they themselves can attest to its effectiveness, pinalabas na nila ang episode na yon. hope this will enlighten the skeptics.

    Can somebody shed any light on this "flourescent light" legend? Is it true? Pinoy ba talaga nagimbento nito? O BS nanaman porque "Flores" daw pangalan ng nagimbento kaya flourescent ang tawag. Sounds too much like Pinoy daw nagimbento ng Armalite rifle, kasi Armando daw pangalan ng nagimbento

    all along the car manufacturers knew about this principle. only that they do not implement this. the logical reason is they have this sort of tie up with the oil manufacturers/distributors. the more gas is consumed, the more profit the big three will earn, the more lagay to the car manufacturers will have.
