Energy One Corp (EGOC)

[bewenched]

Since model year 2007, everything coming from the factory meets all emission standards and gets much better fuel mileage than the old junk.

I think you have forgotten that many states changed their emissions standards this year... .not to mention that construction companies in many areas around the US and the world are now limited to how many hours a day they can run their equipment because of the emissions they put out.

The available devices function well and have almost zero negative impact on fuel mileage.

The only things I've found on the web are a few consumer groups that did tests on the types of units that are a build it yourself and buy it on ebay. The same can be said for Electric Superchargers for cars that are no more than bilge pumps pushing maybe one psi.

EGOC is not building "install it yourself" kits.

The problem is that the "research studies" that is out there has been done on GASOLINE engines. Not Diesel.

To date, Hydrogen fuel enhancement products have not been specifically addressed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, as no research devices or commercial products have reports available as per the "Motor Vehicle Aftermarket Retrofit Device Evaluation Program."... in other words, they've never researched it.

Here's a few sources for additional research for those that actually want to check it out. Notice all the "gas" and "car" I've underlined. Diesel is a whole different ball game.
