Wonder if we would have to go to larger injectors?

The two reversed blade propellers (spinning opposite of each other) increase the vacuum force while intaking air to increase efficiency

Yea, in my life experience, incoming air is like mashed potatoes, the more you mash it, the better it comes out.

Need to get me about 6-8 of those magic magnets to put around the fuel line so I can get those pesky ions and molecules to all line up properly.
That and a SuperChip for increased HP along with a 20% increase in MPG.
