After reading over a few more posts and PRs, I've come to the conclusion that EGOC is a scam from a trucking point of view and that they are preying on people with little knowledge of trucking and “technology.” Their website is abysmal with links to nowhere, provides only vague references to their products/services and is intended only to sell stock. None of the product/services are currently available and I doubt that they ever will be. The name of the game seems to be keep investors in the dark, make exaggerated claims, promise much and deliver little.
From what I can gather, their products are a hydrogen generator that boosts mileage and two wonderful exhaust devices that supposedly cut emissions. None of this is new. Hydrogen generation devices are bogus and has been around for decades. They are sold everywhere to gullible people and some swear that they work with fantastic mileage claims.
Even so, after all these years not one device has been successfully dyno tested and proven to give a meaningful mileage improvement to the FTC's satisfaction. Why not? Testing at a CARB/EPA facility takes about a week tops and the cost is about $40K, per CEE facility in Santa Ana, CA. If any of the "technology" worked and provided even a modest improvement that is a pittance, venture capitalists and engine manufacturers would beat a path to the inventor's door and there would be no need to peddle stock.
Never mind that the manufacturers have battalions of engineers trying to squeeze even tiny improvements from engine to give them the competitive edge. Ask yourself, think they haven't tried hydrogen? Do you have a hydrogen device on your personal vehicle? Why not if it works? It's bogus, gang.
As for the PM filter and NOx devices (if they even exist) the improvement to fuel mileage would be miniscule because there isn't that much back pressure to deal with in current systems. There are already a slew of CARB/EPA approved devices on the market, they are standard equipment on model year 2007 and newer trucks and they have been retrofitted to older trucks for several years. EGOC is supposedly coming to market (????) but with too little too late and they're competing with well established companies such as Donaldson, Cleaire, Engine Control Systems, Johnson Mathey that truckers trust. EGOC has only 3 employees, no manufacturing facilities and apparently no knowledge. Good luck with that plan...
To be continued.
P.S. Can any DD types tell us precisely where the Middle East the bus test is being conducted? The Middle East is a big place so which country is it?
