Hey guys, I found this on ebay and I wonder if its a bad product like the tornado was.

Here's a quote from the site:
HOW DOES TURBOMAG WORK?

Untreated Fuel molecules tend to “clump” together due to attraction between molecules with charges of opposite polarities. This causes an inefficient burn. As a result, your engine experiences loss of power, lower gas mileage and lots of carbon build-up. Turbomag’s powerful magnetic field causes these “clumps” of fuel molecules to be charged with a single polarity, thus they repel each other making the fuel disperse more efficiently causing more complete combustion and power production. Turbomag will actually remove the existing carbon build-up in your engine - this usually takes an average of 3 tanks full of gas, followed by a dramatic increase in gas mileage and horsepower.

I tried searching for this information and couldn't find anything.
Hope you guys can help.

I would say doubtful.

At any rate. You can gain more by driving more efficiently and it is proven to work or your money back :) Before trying gimmicks you should maximize your potential behind the wheel.

Hi Pedro:

___Unfortunately, this kind of thing is completely bunk. I loved the carbon buildup angle. Take a look at a modern day ICE breakdown at a local shop somewhere. These darn things are really clean because of today’s detergent gasoline’s other then the EGR valve and its recirc path.

___Good Luck

I used one just like it a few years ago. It did nothing.
EPA tested these, among others, and they did nothing.

Snake oil would be better than the magnet or the "vortex tornado" or any other similar bunk. At least the snake oil would burn in the engine...
