Just heard about this Effuel device...

https://www.effuelofficial.com

Anyone have additional tech info? From the things I've read, it sounds like a scam and too good to be true.

Aside from being pure crap, it won't work on the JL because of the Security Gateway Module. You'd need a bypass in place, and even then there's no guaranty that it will work.

I remember in my teen years when they sold little propellers to put in your carbs venturi or under the carb to atomize the fuel and increase your power and gas mileage. Hmmm, maybe they were seeing the future of automobile turbochargers, Lots of automotive snake oil out there over the years.
