Will the HAFC work in my diesel car?

No, this HAFC kit is not made for diesel vehicles. It was only made for gasoline engines. You can still apply for a quote for the PICC, because that will be used for diesel as well as gasoline engines. In fact, we believe we will be able to improve the mileage of 18 wheeler trucks by 4 or 5 times with the PICC.

What size kit do we need for our vehicle? 

The quote(s) you get back will be based upon the type of vehicle(s) you have. If you have a four cylinder, our dealer will be sending you either a single cell unit or a unit that can be either single or double cell with instructions to use it as a single cell unit. If you have an 8 cylinder vehicle the dealer will quote a double cell unit and will instruct you to hook up both sides of the fuel cell. The Fuel cell kits are designed to be used on pretty much all vehicles. If you have a 6 cylinder, hooking up both sides of the double cell unit will be your option based upon the amount of amperage available with your car’s  electrical system. Many of the dealers charge the same price for the double cell kit as they do for the single cell kit, but there are good reasons with a smaller car where things are tight and more compact to use a single cell.

If I buy another car, can I remove the HAFC and put it on another car? 

Sure, it is designed for all gasoline engines. The kit is designed to last as long as your car, but you may sell your car. In that case, have your mechanic remove it (or do it yourself if you are handy) and install it on your new car. We then do recommend that you would pay one of our Certified Tuning Technicians $100 to retune it.  There may be another car you have that will get more savings from the kit. It is your kit and your option. You may have multiple cars and just do one car first to decide what to do with the other one. This is all your choice.

Do you have enough trained mechanics to get it installed right away? 

ANY actual mechanic should be able to install it from the directions in the kit without even being trained. We have a school that trains master mechanics to train local mechanics on how to do the install. We have already graduated 100 Trainers to go back to their local areas and train mechanics. These trainers are setting up schools and can train 6-12 mechanics a week. In addition to that, we have a Mechanics Training Correspondence Course for teaching and installing. Check out that area of the PICC web site that you originally went to. We will recommend a trained and certified mechanic to any kit buyer with their kit purchase, but you do not have to use our trained mechanic. Many kit buyers who are handy can install the kit themselves. The part that is sensitive is in tuning the emissions control computer system. We have trained specialists in that area who are responsible for the recruiting and training of the tuning technicians in every major marketing area of the USA. A vehicle can be tuned in a matter of as little as 15 minutes (30 minutes tops.) By the time you will need a Certified Tuning Technician, we will be ready to refer one to you within a reasonable driving distance of your home.

If proper “tuning” is the key to savings, how often do we get the computer tuned? 

Proper “tuning” is, indeed the key. There are some cars  that only require installation and do not need to be tuned. Unlike getting a tune-up, this “tuning” does not have to be done every year. In the event of a total failure and shutting down of your electrical system in your vehicle, it may have to be repeated, but that is pretty much it. The various fuel saving devices of the kit can be doing their job, but many times the on board computer has been set up in a manner to defeat fuel improvement devices. You may wonder how that is in the interests of the manufacturer, but when the fuel burns too clean, there is no carbon build up or sludge that wears out the engine and the engine lasts three times as long and you keep the car longer without trading it in on a new model. Understand it now? In a great many instances the computer is used to actually defeat fuel saving devices. In our case, our mini-computer (the Optimizer) is hooked up to the manufacturer’s computer and ours teaches their computer how to accept and manage our system without rejecting it or the savings. We do this in a manner that is legal in all states. Our computer is “the good wife”. It makes their computer think it was his own idea. It is brilliant and only our Certified specialists can tune that system and make it work. The $100 you pay them is well spent. They usually earn $200 per hour or more, which is why we will have no trouble keeping plenty with Certified Tuning Technicians in all areas. If you buy a kit and install it yourself (or with help with a friend), you may need to hire a tuner to get the savings. I'm sure that driving even a hundred miles to a tuner to get the economy would be a small sacrifice for the savings

Why buy the Hydro-Assist Fuel Cell now rather than just waiting for the PICC?  

That is not very wise. The HAFC is a component part of the PICC. It is guaranteed to increase your fuel economy right now by at least 50% while the PICC upgrade for your model car is being perfected. You most likely will be required to eventually buy it with the PICC, and, if in the unlikely case that it is not necessary to improve the effectiveness of the PICC for your car, you will be allowed to return it for a full refund or keep it and have it installed on another car. There is nothing to lose in getting the benefit of it right now while the PICC is being perfected. It, basically, costs you nothing extra! Many people will discover that the HAFC is so effective that the extra cost to upgrade into the PICC will not be necessary. In that case the whole thing was achieved with a kit that cost somewhere around a thousand dollars. We currently have around a dozen cars with the HAFC portion that have increased their mileage, on our scientific mileage test, of over one hundred miles per gallon! Why spend a few thousand more dollars improving that?

You may stop at the HAFC and not even upgrade. It will be your choice.

Will either of these technologies void my manufactures warrantee? 

Absolutely not! There is a federal law on the books, The Magnuson-Moss Act, that states that any after market product will not void a manufacturer’s warrantee UNLESS the manufacturer can PROVE that product did damage to the part in question. These devices cause more fuel to be burned and clean the engine.

If I have to put water in the Fuel Cell will it freeze in the winter? 

The fuel cell will be filled with water and, when it freezes, the minute the electric current comes from the battery to the Fuel Cell it immediately thaws out enough of the water to start making gas right away. It will be up to full capacity and completely thawed usually within five minutes. The Fuel Cell will require filling about once every two tanks of gas on the norm. It is accessible and easy to fill and you can see the water level. When the unit is upgraded to the PICC, we will put in a larger water storage tank and it will not need to be filled more than a couple of times a year.

Is there anything else that the owner is required to do to maintain the system? 

Yes, there is one other thing. The gasoline that is going into your car is a long chain molecule that is hard to burn fast. Those covalent bonds can be broken to make that gas burn faster and more completely. We have developed a special "Covalizer" that you carry in a 16 ounce bottle. You merely put one tablespoon full (one half of an ounce) into a small tank (of about 13 gallons in size like for a four cylinder car. You put two full tablespoons (one ounce) of it into a larger 26 gallon tank for a pickup. Just measure it out into the funnel we provide and then fill the tank. You cannot put too much in. That will just waste product. One bottle will condition 400 gallons of fuel at a cost of 5 cents per gallon. While this is inconvenient, you will get used to it. It is a lot more inconvenient to work to earn the money to pay for the gasoline you will be using if you do not do it. This is far better than any stand alone fuel additive. Remember, the HAFC is a "system" where the components work together to maximize the effect of the total process. If you leave out a part of the process it will still save and perform, but not as well as it will when you do it right.

What kind of mileage should I realistically expect? 

That depends on a lot of things.  The condition of your car has a lot to do with it.  Has it been well maintained and serviced? We have had some makes and models that are the same, but some vehicles do better or worse. One V-8 F-150 Ford pickup got only a 56% increase in mileage, while another one we did went from 11 mpg highway to 33 mpg. The size or horsepower of your car seems to have a lot to do with it.  Four cylinder vehicles almost always double mileage, while the bigger V-8s usually get more like a 60- 70% increase. One of our specialists did a 1998 Air stream motor home and it went from 6.8 miles per gallon to 22 mpg! There are exceptions. Of course the smaller increase means more to the bigger vehicle, because it uses twice as much gas and usually only gets half the mileage. What is better… all of a little or half of a lot? It all comes out pretty even, actually. We are absolutely guaranteeing you a 50% increase in mileage, but it should double. We have had a few vehicles that even our tuning specialists just were not able to get the increase. It is very rare, and we do not fully understand why. Some vehicles have mechanical problems that would take a lot of time and money to diagnose (perhaps the on board computer needs replacing.) On the rare occasions we run into that we would rather just refund the money for the kit and accept the defeat. Of course the customer can spend the money repairing the vehicle and then achieve the mileage increase or keep the kit and put it on another vehicle. That does not mean that when the PICC is ready for that vehicle we will not be able to do a lot with the PICC. The PICC technology by/passes the computer altogether. We believe our PICC will get every personal vehicle on the road over 100 miles per gallon (even SUVs.)

How long will it be before the PICC upgrade is ready? 

That is a good question. We are planning on demonstrating it in Washington DC at the largest renewable energy show in the world on March 5, 2008. We are planning to have an SUV there that will be getting over 100 miles per gallon. We are also hoping, with our multi-million dollar ad campaign to have tens of thousands of people with the HAFC kits on their cars that are ready for the upgrade. We will have the mechanics in place (who can do both HAFC and PICC conversions) and the track record of tens of thousands of people getting an average, we hope, of double mileage at that time just with the HAFC. It will then be up to the EPA to decide whether or not to give our Pre Ignition Catalytic Converter the status of acceptable catalytic converter. Of course with our PICC converter on a car we will be able to breath the exhaust coming out, and it would be pretty difficult for the EPA to deny it at least equal status to the catalytic converters on cars today. We do absolutely expect approval by no later than May. Shortly after the EPA approval, we will be modifying cars by upgrading them to the PICC. Of course those cars who have the HAFC kit will be modified first.

If I don’t get an increase of 50% but I am pleased with my savings can I keep it? 

The minimum savings guarantee is a benefit offered to the consumer and it is completely the consumer’s decision whether or not to avail themselves of it. I am sure that just because you got a 45% savings, most people (especially with large pick ups and SUVs) would still be ecstatic with that. The savings guarantee is there to absolutely assure all customers that we will at least meet or exceed that standard. The choice of enforcing it or not is entirely yours. All dealers will cheerfully refund the cost of the kit they sold if it falls short of our pledge.

Why should I purchase the HAFC kit as soon as possible? 

We believe that we are in the process of rethinking the automobile industry. What we have witnessed in our research on the PICC is more than exciting. We know that big business is always resistant to change. We are taking the challenge of growing sales and infrastructure over the next three or four months. The purpose is to set up the opportunity to force the acceptance of the Pre-Ignition catalytic Converter beyond usual political temptations. If we have upwards of 50,000 HAFCs to convert to the PICC, we have all we need to explode it onto the market. The car manufacturers are straining to get 35 miles per gallon with SUVs by the year 2020 and we can modify any SUV in America to get way more than twice that goal right away! Does that not change everything? We can have the manufacturing set up to meet that explosive growth, assuming a very successful HAFC program. So, we are pushing hard to create and keep up with a fast growing market. It MUST operate on a “first come; first served” basis. To avoid any frustration from our customers, we have a plan to grow methodically. It is our hope that we will never fall behind in our goal of following through on orders within a few weeks time at most. But, think about it. The early bird gets the worm. If it goes crazy, as anyone should see it could, it could get harder and harder to keep within a few weeks of orders. Every day you do not have our technology is just more wasted gasoline money and pollution!

We have been told that we need to call references to check out a product. Can we get references of satisfied customers? 

We do have a few hundred customers who have experienced the HAFC technology. We also have 2,000 dealers who are in line to distribute the HAFC kit nationwide and in other parts of the world. We are also running full page ads in national magazines that comprise a total subscriber list of over twenty million readers. Not to mention planned ads on TV, radio, and mall bill boards. Our dealers are already being inundated with thousands (soon tens of thousands) of requests for quotes. This is a nationwide mass distribution of something everyone needs. I can assure you that you would not want to be one of the references who would be getting dozens of calls (or more) every evening from people who want to know how your HAFC is doing. That is why we have done something even better than giving out the phone numbers of our customers. We are offering you the best reference you could ever get… We are offering YOU as a reference for yourself. We are offering you the chance to try our HAFC kit and, if it does not perform at the minimal level you can return it for a 100% refund of ALL the money you paid our distributor for it.  We have been offering our hundreds of customers that same offer since January of 2007. There are no complaints. There are no customers who have ever exercised that guarantee right with the dealer who sold them their kit, and been denied the full refund. The only thing we ask is to get it back in good enough shape that we can recondition it for resale. Who else guarantees a 50% improvement in fuel economy? I will tell you who… no one except us, AND WE MEAN IT! The greatest reference you could get is a local mechanic who knows automobiles and is able to review the installation manual on this site and the main HAFC and PICC site you initially visited and can tell you that the technology makes sense. If the concept makes no sense to him, then fine, why take a chance on something that a real expert with no axe to grind says makes no sense? But, if it makes sense to him, and you can see what we have to gain by building a good reputation, PLUS you can return it if you do not have the experience we promise, where do you have a better chance to get free of this gasoline nightmare?

Why is there no name for the Company advertised on the Web Site?

The name of the company that developed and sells the HAFC kit and will soon offer the PICC kit is Dutchman Enterprises, LLC. There is a good reason why there is no name on the web site, because it is the main site for our 2,000 dealers. You most likely responded to our national media campaign. The advertising was, collectively, paid for by our distributors. As the requests for quotes come in, they are routed in sequential order to the various companies that paid for the ads. When they respond to you with your quote, they will identify themselves and you will know exactly whom you are specifically purchasing the kits from. Be aware that this is a nationwide advertising blitz so you may get a distributor from another part of the country. All they are doing is selling you the kit. That is why they can sell it anywhere. It will be installed either by you (if you are handy) or by a local mechanic in your area. We stand ready to locate a qualified mechanic right in your neighborhood. If we do not have one already, we will provide training for a mechanic who, after reviewing the details of the installation, knows he can do the job.  If the technology does not perform at the 50% minimal improvement level, then the distributor will buy it back for what you paid them. These distributors value their relationship with Dutchman Enterprises enough to have built their businesses around it. Dutchman can assure you, that you will always be treated fairly and professionally by our distributors who will live up to their commitments. You have the extra protection that comes from dealing with a company that has an entire national network of distributors who need inventory. The market is HUGE. The mechanic always stands behind his own workmanship. The warrantee for all the kit parts is provided by Dutchman Enterprises, LLC 3002 State Route 23, Newfoundland, New Jersey as well as the actual manufacturer involved in that particular kit.. We have various licensed manufacturers and major suppliers in The USA and Canada who also warrantee the parts for the kits they manufacture to Dutchman. You have a whole team of people standing ready to do their part to make this a great experience. We apologize for any confusion this may cause, but you are actually dealing this way more often than you realize. Even the local McDonalds is owned by someone other than corporate McDonalds. It is run by a local businessman who values his relationship with McDonalds. It is most likely run by a different owner than the McDonalds across town, even though they both sell the same product. The burger business (like most businesses) is dependent upon many other businesses to keep in materials and supplies and a local labor pool, but is located in a specific location. It cannot do business outside of its local area due to the product (burgers) it provides to the public. Of course it has to obey the rules and regulations set by corporate McDonalds, and it is overseen by McDonalds headquarters, who make sure everyone obeys the rules. Dutchman Enterprises cannot afford to have unhappy customers anywhere. Our distributors are selling a universal (one size fits all) kit for vehicles. They must do so within the confines of our program. The best thing is that this kit is so much in demand (with over 100 million vehicles in North America that need it) that it assures everyone of success. You, the customer, are the real boss, and the assurance of the entire project. Where would McDonalds be without satisfied customers? We have worked too hard to develop a quality product and nationwide distribution and service not to deliver.

How does this kit compare to Hybrid kits or just buying hybrid cars? 

Hybrid car modifications are the first good fuel economy idea to come out of Detroit for the last two decades. The electric car was the dumbest idea ever, if you think about it. They claim that electricity was “clean energy” and that is a HUGE lie! Well over half of all the electricity produced in this country is made from coal. Think about it… You take COAL (the worst possible energy source that creates acid rain) and make the “clean” electricity from it (doing more damage to the environment than using gasoline in your car could ever do) and send it over transmission lines (that loses 10-15% of the energy produced through line losses) and plug your electric car into the wall to charge a battery that is only 50% efficient. It does not take a genius to understand that is not smart. You start out with the most damaging agent possible and then get the inefficiencies of not only the power plant, but also the transmission lines, and the battery into the mix. It would be better for the environment if we just burned the gasoline. Electricity in cars “appears” to be “clean” energy, but. In fact, is anything but “clean”. In the case of the hybrid, however, you are taking the losses from having to use the brakes and stop or slow down the vehicle to power an alternator to charge a battery and store inertial energy that would have been thrown away.  You take the energy from lost inertia and use it to create momentum. That is a great idea! Of course it works better in city driving with all the stop and go traffic. Is it worth the effort? That is the big question. To modify a car to make it a Hybrid after it has been made, can cost $5,000 or more with kits that can be purchased. They usually return another 8 miles per gallon on average. You can do the math to see if it makes economic sense, but it certainly is good for the environment. But, now there is another way… It is our HAFC kit for now and soon it will be our PICC kit. Does it make more sense to spend $5,000 on a kit to gain 8 miles per gallon or to spend $1,000 on a kit to increase your mileage by an additional 50% or more? If you were getting 20 miles per gallon, then that means another 10 miles per gallon using a kit that cost only $1,000 and saving $4,000 on the kit cost alone! Remember, both the HAFC and the hybrid kits have to be installed. Of course, when the PICC is available, we believe all cars will get over 100 miles per gallon and that PICC kit is not even expected to be as expensive as the current hybrid modification kits. The other way hybrids are available is through the car- maker. The car manufacturers can more easily offer a hybrid version of the car.  The price difference between a regular car and its hybrid equivalent vehicle can be substantial.  For example, the Honda Civic Ex costs $3, 090 more for a combined mileage difference of 13 more miles per gallon, or 42 mpg.) It is much less than the cost of buying a kit and modifying the vehicle after it has been manufactured. Of course we have a new Honda Civic that we have modified with the HAFC kit. It currently gets 85 miles per gallon highway and a combined mileage of 59 miles per gallon rather than the 42 mpg combined average of the manufactured hybrid. The kit that costs less than half the difference in total cost to buy and install is providing more than twice as much additional mileage. It should be easy to see the value of an HAFC upgrade. The PICC evaluation is expected to be even more extreme.  

Can we install the kit on leased vehicles? 

That is up to the leasing contract that you signed with the leasing company. We suggest that you review that contract and determine what is says about putting after market products on the vehicle during the term of the lease. It, most likely, says nothing about this subject. If it states nothing about that, then we believe you will be fine, especially since the total HAFC system can be removed at any time. The car engine and all moving parts operate independent of the kit. When the HAFC kit is removed, the car is immediately returned to its original condition. It would be like in the old days when the horse died, you just removed the saddle and took it to the next horse. If you turn the leased vehicle back in you may want to remove the HAFC kit so you can reinstall it on your next vehicle. Why give them the benefit since they did not pay for it. In the near future, we believe, the leasing company will fight harder to prevent you from removing it at the end of the lease than penalizing you for having it. In the case of the PICC, we are working on a program whereby, if a customer commits to a PICC conversion, our lenders will refinance or possibly even buy out their lease and refinance their vehicle as long as they put the PICC on it. The idea is that it will dramatically increase the value of the vehicle, especially an SUVs or monster pick ups.

Has this HAFC system or PICC system been CARB tested yet, and has the PICC been accepted by the EPA as a catalytic converter? 

Many cars that have failed inspection for the third time have been modified to the HAFC and passed with flying colors. In fact, when people fail inspection, modifying a car is the best way to get it passed. The 2007 Honda Civic we will be showing at a renewable energy show in Washington DC was tested in New Jersey inspection and it was allowed 100 hydrocarbons. With the HAFC system in place, it had only 11. It had absolutely no carbon monoxide! We are preparing for CARB testing right now for the HAFC system. We are working with a California engineering firm to do a protocol unit for testing and there is little doubt we will pass CARB certification with the HAFC. We believe that the CARB program is a sincere effort to protect the environment and we intend to co-operate fully with their efforts. We should be going for testing in early March. For that reason we suggest that people in California hold off on putting the kit on their car until that testing has been completed. Our dealer may sell a California customer the kit in advance of the testing, but will assure them that if we do not get CARB certified, the dealer will buy it back for what they paid for it if they are not able to use it in their state. At least they will already have the kit when they are able to install it. We do believe that kit orders are going to get pretty back- logged. We are well on our way to tens of thousands of orders already. Our advertising is targeted toward tens of millions of potential customers before the end of March. Getting a kit now is a very good idea. As for the EPA accepting the Pre-Ignition Catalytic Converter as an acceptable catalytic converter, watch the short PICC video if you have not already done so and you will see that this device is in every sense of the term, a catalytic converter that is engaging the process of catalysis to pre-condition the fuel. It is so effective that after the PICC reactor is installed on a vehicle you can breath the exhaust, because it is so clean. We believe that the EPA would have no choice but to approve it when the exhaust is so clean you can breath it. We also believe that our PICC will set a new standard for emission control in the automotive industry. We do, absolutely, intend to work with the car manufacturers if they wish to apply this device to all vehicles that are manufactured in North America through licensing of this breakthrough technology. We believe that the acceptance of our catalytic solution is inevitable. It may happen right away, or it may take time. In any event, we can all be enjoying the benefits of the HAFC modification kit while we await approval for this new revolution in catalytic converters.

We have heard something disturbing on the internet from critics of this project. What is your response to their negative remarks? 

We will deal with this problem openly and honestly. We have nothing to hide. It is very difficult for people to understand that the internet is an unregulated forum for comments pro and con on everything. It is a free rumor mill. Unfortunately, since this, in itself, can be used as a scam, it has become a way of causing people to make decisions about people and businesses. Critics on the net claim to merely be exercising their free speech right to their opinion. Freedom of speech and press makes it very difficult to get the courts to force them to either prove their false claims and spin, or cease and desist. But, be assured, that many of them are being paid to help some big business unfairly compete with alternative technologies. Many of these “critics” are, in actuality, well-paid and clever character assassins. They ALWAYS claim to be unpaid, but it is easy for big businesses to get some unsueable person of low morals to do their dirty work. When you get such input, you should evaluate it carefully. What are they saying? How do you know it is even true? If it were true, how would that affect anything? For example, one critic of Dutchman Enterprises (a man who has hunted Dennis Lee like a mad dog for over twelve years) claims that “ex-convict Dennis Lee is behind this”. In fact, Dutchman Enterprises is NOT owned by Dennis Lee.  The Director of Marketing for Dutchman Enterprises is Dennis Lee. He is an employee. We find him to be not only extremely effective in his job, but also a very honest Christian man. He was in prison for two years about fifteen years ago for not filling out a form, a civil code (cc1812) violation. As hard as that is to understand, he was never actually even convicted. At worst he is a man who paid a debt to society for a civil code violation. He was trying to advance a technology to make free electricity (against the wishes of some very powerful self interest groups), which is what we believe, was his only problem. The system fought hard to keep him from even getting a chance to try to fix our energy problem. We find it interesting that over a thirty year long struggle officials never once took him to trial. But, that has nothing to do with Dutchman Enterprises. We have 2,000 businesses to distribute the kit world wide, hundreds and soon thousands, of trained mechanics, expert trainers in automotive, administrative staff, and we assure you we have filled out all registration forms required. This character assassin posing as a critic goes on to remind people that “there have been many scams in high mileage systems in the past” we would add that we believe there is a scam in the low mileage systems being advanced by the major auto manufacturers. In many ways the computerized emissions control systems on your car are scamming the public right now. Unburned fuel is what breaks engines and causes a faster turn over of cars. If our system works, why couldn’t the car manufacturers, themselves, have provided this technology with the car? Of course you never hear this guy putting down the big boys. He tries to cast suspicion on the claims but offers NO proof of any failure to perform or to scam anyone on the part of Dutchman or its associates, because there is none. If there were any real consumer problems you would be hearing more than rumors from nobodies. You would be hearing about arrests and convictions and consumer action groups would be up in arms. We strongly suggest that you ignore these attempts to keep you and us from giving you the fuel economy you deserve. This risk free opportunity to discover the truth is the best way you have of ending your high gas bills. When you ask a bonafide mechanic who knows automobiles and has reviewed the technology whether or not it makes sense the answer you get will be worth ten times as much as an unknown character assassin trying to scare you off. Of course you cannot beat putting it on your car and experiencing it for your self. One thing is for sure, we all have a REAL problem with the price and supply (not to mention damaging aspects) of gasoline and our unmodified cars are not getting the job done. When you are already in the soup you have to trust someone. Why not trust people who have a technology that makes sense to mechanics with a lifetime of experience and a working knowledge of the system?

I think I will just wait for the PICC to be ready for market.   

Of course you can do what you feel is best, but we believe that is a mistake. The PICC certainly is what we have been designing to be our crown jewel. We believe that it will revolutionize the way vehicles are manufactured in the near future. We have also discovered, in designing the PICC, that the HAFC technology compliments the process of conditioning the fuel to become a plasma for the PICC. The HAFC is actually a “first step” toward the PICC modification. Oddly enough, both technologies can stand alone, but, when used in tandem, they are optimal. We have had many surprises as this research has unfolded. We started with the HAFC, because it was easier to make universal; avoided the anti tampering laws and is legal now; and our people wanted to get on the market with something faster.  When we discovered what the HAFC could offer in the process of plasma production, we were glad we had done so. One advantage the HAFC has over the PICC is that it is less costly for the consumer. The suggested retail for the kit (without the optimizer) is $1,000. We were also shocked to experience that on many 4 cylinder cars, with the HAFC, we actually experienced well over 100 miles per gallon on our scientific orange test. If a kit that costs $1,000 can deliver that kind of efficiency, it may not make sense to buy the PICC upgrade perhaps for an additional $3,000 in order to improve it by another 2 or 3 times efficiency. There is a point at which it is no longer cost effective. Example: If you are driving 15,000 miles a year, and get 100 miles per gallon, then you are using 150 gallons of gas a year (or 3 gallons of gas a week.) Why would you pay another $3,000 to cut that down to one gallon of gas, and save two gallons of gas a week (or 100 gallons of gas a year?) Buying the first technology would be very cost effective, but to spend another $3,000 to improve it by 100 gallons of gas a year would not be as effective as the initial $1,000 kit was. We believe that some of the cars with smaller engines will react so favorably to the HAFC that it will not be cost effective to upgrade to the PICC. The HAFC will be the better investment. Of course for the larger engines, to go from 10 miles per gallon to 15 miles per gallon (or even 20) with the HAFC will be great, and very cost effective, but to upgrade to a PICC and get 100 miles per gallon will be well worth the additional $3,000. To change 1,500 gallons a year ultimately to 150 gallons a year at the $4,000 cost for both kits, would be very worthwhile. To save 1,350 gallons of gasoline at a cost of $4 per gallon would pay that off in a hurry. It looks like the HAFC will be an important first step in making the PICC work at its ultimate performance. You will need it anyway when the PICC has been approved as a catalytic converter and is legal to apply to your vehicle. It is currently illegal in most states to remove the catalytic converter unless you are replacing it with an approved replacement. So, until the PICC is approved by the EPA as an acceptable replacement for your current catalytic converter, anti tampering laws make it illegal at the present time (in most states) to use it. Why not get the HAFC now and save money while you are waiting for the PICC to be ready for the market? The HAFC may be all you need (or can afford.) When the PICC is approved and legal for the marketplace, those who have purchased the HAFC kit will be the first in line to upgrade by adding on the PICC. There will most likely be tens of thousands of HAFC owners (perhaps as many as a hundred thousand or more) to upgrade first before anyone else gets the HAFC/PICC kit. Why not buy the HAFC now and find out if it is all you need, save money while you are waiting for the PICC upgrade, and be first in line to get involved in the technical revolution of the automobile industry? The only other new fuel improvement technology that is effective so far is a Hybrid kit to modify cars to hybrids. See the answer in this Q&A section about how the HAFC compares to other Hybrids. We say “other” hybrids, because according to the definition of the word hybrid, the HAFC kit does convert your car to a Hybrid. “”Hybrid” is defined as, “two different types of components performing essentially the same function.” The HAFC combines properly conditioned gasoline with water gas for top fuel performance. In conclusion, there is just no good reason to wait for the PICC to be approved. There is no telling how long the government can drag out the approval. Whatever time it does take, you can be saving money in the interim with an HAFC modification. 

I know where I can get a cheap Hydrogen Separator to put on my car for only a few hundred dollars, why buy an HAFC kit?  

It is true that there are Hydrogen Separators that make hydrogen fuel from water. That is a LOT different technology. Our Hydro Assist Fuel Cell makes WATER GAS (HHO.) Water gas is a combination of the hydrogen and oxygen from the water and makes the most unique and powerful gas there is. It is true that other people are making water gas units. Our associate originally worked with Yull Brown when he brought the water gas technology back from China in the 90s. We understand this technology like few others do. Our unique (patent pending) SYSTEM is much more than just a water gas maker. We have scientifically blended the processes of vaporization, ionization, covalizing, AND combining water gas to assist combustion and raise the octane level of the fuel. You may buy a hydrogen separator but it cannot do anything like what our HAFC system is doing. You may even buy a water gas maker, but it, also, is not doing what our unique system is doing. You may buy similar components to those in our system and combine them all together as we have, but they will not be blended together in exactly the same manner as we have, and probably will cost you more to buy from separate vendors. You can get a heat exchanger, but it is not magnetic. It is also important to note that while there are other devices to produce HHO, and there are even people selling plans on how to make your own, not all HHO water gas makers are the same. We see devices that are outright laughable being promoted as being able to do what our precisely engineered fuel cell does. Do not fall for a cathode and anode stuck in a glass jar of water. It will produce gas, and lots of visible bubbles, but it produces very little useable gas. Our people have been making water gas for well over a decade. There are all sorts of fuel additives and people who “think” they have saved on their fuel bills using them.  We do not “think” our system saves gas by having a “feeling” that the fuel consumption has gone down. People profiting from MLM systems sometimes get into wishful thinking or are overly pessimistic and draw conclusions about a fuel additive without realizing that there are all sorts of variables that can effect gas mileage. We apply a scientific test called the orange test in which all the variables are controlled for an “orange compared to an orange” test of the resulting savings. We have tested most of the fuel saving gas additives on the market today and none of the ones we tested can pass our orange test with anywhere near the results of the Covalizer we had developed by people who used to make gasoline formulas.  Assuming you are able somehow to find comparable components for a comparable cost of our kit, there is still a major problem remaining. The onboard computer, working in conjunction with the emissions control system on your car will detect fuel savings (and engine saving) devices that are not standard equipment from the manufacturer, and the computerized emissions control system will go into a default status.  It will make the fuel mixture rich no matter what you do, until the computer senses all is as it had been. That means that you will get the benefit of the combination of devices until the computer learns the after market system and then it is rendered ineffective. Unless you have our optimizer that stops that from happening, it did you little or no good to have the energy saving devices on board. The optimizer is ONLY sold with an HAFC kit. You cannot buy it anywhere. It is a mini computer that teaches the on board computer how to regulate and accept our energy savings system that provides fuel economy but does not change the safe operating parameters of the engine. Most of our dealers sell that device at cost as an enabler of the HAFC kit. It is a shame the Optimizer is even necessary, but it is. When all (or most of) the fuel is burned there is no sludge or hydrocarbon build up in the engine and the engine lasts so long you do not buy another car as fast. The manufacturer finds that unacceptable. However, do not worry about them voiding your warrantee due to the Magnuson/Moss act of Congress that prevents the manufacturer from voiding a warrantee for an after market product unless they can prove it damaged the vehicle. In our case, it is doing the opposite of damage. Some computers will allow 15% savings without “tilting” but 50% (or better) can only be attained if you can get the on board computer to go along with it. Beware: there are computer systems that are just trying to fool the computer to get it to lean out the fuel. With those technologies, there is no fuel enhancing system to enliven or energize the fuel so that the engine has an offset that keeps the engine at the right operating parameters. These “computer foolers” just starve it. This is like a “stop eating” diet. It will be good only for a short time. Our system keeps the fuel trim while the patient stays healthy. For the cost of our inexpensive kit, we have done all the engineering and designing to bring the state of the art technology to you, and we offer what no one else offers, a full guarantee based upon science and integrity. Why play around with the unknown, especially when it does not even make good sense when you think it through? We are the leaders in this march toward a new deal for consumers. Your solution has arrived and it is time to get on board.
