MPGenie Program
The MPGenie™ Program is designed to educate folks about relatively simple yet effective upgrades and modifications that improve fuel economy — like magic. The goal is to target upgrades with a reasonable ROI. Some recommended procedures and products improve fuel economy without affecting the engine’s combustion efficiency. Some upgrades affect combustion efficiency, but only a little. Others have a profound effect on combustion efficiency, with rather impressive potential.
Below are links to the different Technology Pages. At the bottom of each page is an FE Rating. An “FE-NR” indicates the page covers information only; a Non Rating. An “FE1” rating indicates that it has no effect on combustion efficiency, and should not be used in conjunction with the IXR™ or EHI™. An “FE2” rating means it has a nominal effect on combustion efficiency and is a good candidate for the IXR™, but not the EHI. The highest “FE3” rating puts this technology into the highest combustion efficiency enhancing category. It can use the IXR™, but it can also benefit from the more powerful EHI™ (coming soon).
The MPGenie Training Program is designed to help turn the Magic of Fuel Economy into the Science of Fuel Efficiency. We have finished our MPGenie Basics 051 Training Class filming and are offering it to you for free! We had intended to charge $250 per student, but feel it is more important to get this information out as quickly as possible -- our World needs it desparately! If you are an auto repair Technician or Shop Owner, we will be scheduling the comprehensive 5-day MPGenie Professional Technician 101 Training Program where in addition to more detailed information, it is a hands-on course. You will learn, then do.
