Does any of you have any experience with this product, which featured in the october 2001 edition of Max Power (page 130)?

see http://www.ecotek.com for more info.

I think it'll work, but maybe you guys have other thoughts....... :rolleyes:

i had one of these on my car for a while. It did seem to make a difference ( i gotta 1.1) but then after about 6 months it started to make the car idle a bit dodgy and then eventually one day i was driving round london and it caused my car to break down! It also caused me to get some 'mayonaise' looking stuff in the breather pipes which i had to clean out everyday they got so bad. In the end i just took it off and my car runs fine again now after a tune up. It does come with a lifetime guarantee i think but i couldn't see anything wrong with the unit when i took it off so there's not much point in me returning it!

Take your ecotek and throw it against your garage wall, then kick it about for a while :wink: after this pick it up and throw it in the bin

this is a complete waste of money :mad:
