Question Fitch Fuel Catalyst

I was watching Horsepower TV this weekend, and they tested this product on a new Corvette Z06 engine. It helped on that engine, but has anyone tried on on a 335i? If so, any success?

You know, this TOTALLY looks like a scam but how in the world did they get that many positive reviews?

It has been a while since I took chemistry but I can't see any way that thing works the way they describe. They claim that it take organisms and oxygen out of the fuel and that it lasts 5000 straight hours. Yeah, right.

Also, "The Fitch Fuel Catalyst is a maintenance-free device that easily installs in the fuel line. We like the Fitch because it lets you run 87-octane gas on a vehicle designed for 92 octane." Are you kidding me???

Maybe it just runs your car rich on AFRs by slowing down the spray of fuel

Catalytic converters must be snake oil too, so lets rip them off. They both work on the same premise.

Like the internet, if it's on TV it must be true.

The bridge is slightly used. Buyer is responsible for shipping. It's worth a ton of money. I'll sell it for $25 million but, I'll need you to send me 125 million and I'll send you 100 million back. PM for account details.

Here is a picture of it:

Wow, you are a terrible vendor. I just sent you my $125 million, thinking I got all those toy cars with the package too. Do I at least get to keep the beautiful weather and clouds? Or is that optional equipment too
