NO2 only allows you to add more fuel as the oxygen atoms split off during combustion. It's not necessarily more efficient, just more!

I doubt that the acetone creats much power, just maybe a more complete burn. I bet the acetone lowers the flashpoint of the gas and/or better atomization. Avoid using it on a turbo/supercharged vehicle if that was the case, as it would cause detonation.

Sounds like murder on the rubber components of the fuel system.

Those who are looking for more MPG should convert to synthetic oil, gearlube and ATF. Much safer.

Oh yeah, it's coming back to me now - don't most NO2 systems require you to install a beefier fuel pump? (Just read up on them, never played with them.)

The refiners have caught on to this trick, they're now pumping extra oxygen into the gasoline like a kid at the soda fountain blowing down his straw.

If you weigh a gallon of gas now it would weigh less than last year, and as a bonus you get to pay more!
