Remembering the "fuel line magnets" of the previous era that were designed to give you better MPG's as it "aligned the fuel molecules" or something along those lines.
Oh yeah the Thermocouple thingy to make the planets align for better mpg

Puh-leaze... Everybody knows that the only stickers that truly add horsepower are "VTEC" and "Type R".
bah. bush league.

It is well known that putting a "5.0" on the front fenders of your 4 banger rice burning doubles horsepower!

:eek:

The comments about stickers "adding horsepower" made me think of one of the old Top Gear UK episodes...
I recall the "aogue carburetor" ads in the early 80s, claiming to get 80mpg on this technology surpassed by Big Oil!

A 2x4 under the gas pedal works the best
not nearly as well as a 3:2 reduction gear on the way to the odometer . . .

:facepalm:
