I've read reports ranging from "no discernable effect" to "complete waste of time"..

Take your pick

I bought one - ummmmm IMHO a waste of money unless you drive around town at 30 all the time. Makes no difference on motorways and modern EFI systems cut off the fuelling on over-run anyway. I couldn't detect any difference in performance (V6 Mondeo - oi, no laffing at the back!) and fuel consumption was unaffected (I do 1000m/week).

Save your money - buy some instead!

If this is one of those electric turbo things, don't bother. Spend 10mins and do the maths. It will not make any difference at all.

I agree with the suggestion, and may I offer :women: as an alternative

Just to let you know the web site is

www.cleanburn.co.uk

From the site it sounds good but theres nothing better than running with one to know if they work.

I agree. Mate of mine put one of those electric turbo thingys on his scally Fiesta (Complete with strobe lights etc!). It didn't work. In fact he had to have the engine virtually rebuilt. Oh and then 1000 miles later the engine died and he had to get a new one (Fortunatly for him it was still under warranty )
