    Ow, total cost for my system in the VX was $180 for the cell, $30 for the acrilic and a relay and wiring were stocked itemes at the shop I work at. The other $290 has gone into other tests wich have proven to be better then expected, 1 psi every 4 or 5 secounds, the nothing to shake a stick at.

    Well, this seems interesting. My girlfriends dad just did this similar setup to his CR-V and is get 7mpg more. He has some kind of module that he controls to output for city and highway driving. To be honest I don't like his setup it is just ugly I think he did for like 40 bucks though.

    Could I see some pictures of your setup?

    I'm sure if you emailed the pics to someone here, they would post them up, or use photobucket or something like that to remote link them. What does the meyers setup do that the light/outlet plate style doesn't do?
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.

    Or get a lot of exercise and run, then take $500 and put it into the Moab 2009 fund!

    The Inventor, Stanley Meyer, was conviced of fraud in 1996:

    It's too bad that his brother is continuing to promote this farce and the "conspiracy" of his murder.

    Hmm, interesting. I wounder what they found fraudulent about his work. If it was a fraud why did NASA hire him? Why did he sign a defense contract a week before he died?
    Ok heres some more food for thought. Water is a compound of the elements oxygen and hydrogen. H2O, how do you split a compound, you excite the elements enough to split with somthing like electricty. Check this out, its guys taking it to the next level.

    Still a critic, hears another test, I thought at first it was a fuel like alcahol but I notice water running down the plug and that woulda burst the whole place into flames.

    So I see now why he ended up in court for fraud, he mostlikly had a pissed off investor who got a couple of scientests to say its impossible. Its funny what scientists say is impossible, like atomic explosions before the first atom bomb was set off. If you get the rite jurry you can be convicted of anything or nuthing, especialy if they belive the other guy. Just ask OJ.
