I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these MPG-Caps http://www.teamcanada0258.myffi.biz/en/section_100.asp

A co-worker just started using them in his truck and he says they really help. He claims more power and figures he'll get better mileage. Anyone heard anything about them? Think they will harm my engine if I try them out ?

Never experienced it, but my guess is its a placebo, doesnt do shit you just think it does. I doubt it would harm your car though... Mohawk puts ethonol into their gas which supposibly clogs the injectors... so a disolved pill in 50L of gas is a droplet

;) my guess :bullshit:

A sales lady came up to me, and gave me these pills to try in my own car... But I didnt try em because I've never heard of them and I thought they might harm my engine... She told me I would get at least 200 - 250 more kms per tank.... I get 650 avg right now, which costs me about 58 bucks to fill

I looked on the internet for stuff related to this product... It looked like another MLM type thing.... The lady I met was probably trying to recruit me, cause at the time I was selling mad heaters at the Race City Speedway for Fathers Day. She probably thought I'd make a good contribution to the team... I wish I tried the pills now... I might call her back and ask her to bring a few of em by.... Anyone else wanna try em? I'll get em free.

Eh, get high-flow cats.:D My mileage has gone up like crazy, and I drive even worse now because my car sounds better too:drool: . It also didn't help I took out the sound deadening from the trunk for a Ferrari club drive and now it sounds even better again:drool: :drool:

Yeah, that sounds like a cost-effective mod.

If the same co-worker try to sign you up, stay away.

It's a known MLM scam at the very least.

The pushers will always swear by them but the truth is just a google search away. You really have to be ignorant to fall for these claims.

Xtrema -- Thanx for the advice I'd looked into it before I posted.
I was mostly just wondering if he may be actually harming his truck by using them.
