Sounds like they're playing on the nitro thing pretty heavily. Nitropropane was discussed on here last year IIRC. Higher energy content than regular diesel. The drag racers were rumored to be using it. Scheid is selling lightning juice which I've seen first hand will light a 12v screwdriver tuned motor with less than 2 cans of ether! That's 2 less than with regular 'ol #2.

Haha just saw that link and they cant even file a 10 Q. Maybe this is the reason Twisted Logic can ship out any product....they dont have any!

Read the first note and the last note and tell me you think this business will last. Im glad to see you guys here arent idiots like some other places. :hug:

Check out the mainpage. One ad/endorsment says check out OCC and monster diesel additive team up on Feb 4th. The other one says monster diesel sponsors #01 car in the in the Nationwide series. I'll pass.

Its all one of those fly by night how much can I make before people catch on type of companies. I know for a fact the rep selling it on another site is a scammer. Ive busted him on shit before. Just look at all the crap he spews out. Loosing shipments thru the mail??? My ass. Can you even ship that stuff thru USPS? Thought you couldnt because of combustible. Im not thinking nitro is all that great even in small amounts but Im no expert.

As I see on that site, Randy the Hack has some money into that little thread. Every damn post that is downing the product Randy takes care of it. Nobody seems to get there order, and god forbid you put the product down.

You ever notice how many post he has in that thread, and how many "Helpful" things Randy has done for that TwistedLogic guy? It's all a bunch of BS. :thumb:

As always, my $.02.

Well.....

I currently have some in my tank. They guy selling it insisted on my trying it so I told him to pour a little in. While I havent noticed my motor getting any quieter (I was already running 2 stroke oil) I think I do feel a little power difference. We all know how reliable the seat of the pants dyno is though. I will try to make it to the track this weekend and see for sure if it made a difference. Best I could do last year was a 13.10 ET. Claiming 70 additional HP would put me faster than that so we will see.

I've heard it's the only additive they're using to build the new Brooklyn Bridge that is for sale on Ebay. I heard this from the foreman, Don King who now works for Flying Pig Construction.

I will admit it lowers my opinion of Orange Coast Chopper, not that it was very high to begin with...

HMMM interesting.

Never did understand what was so bad about plain diesel. 99% of people run plain diesel all day with no issues.

Maybe a cetane booster for performance diesels, but otherwise I think the fuel is pretty good on its own.

Let's say you have an additive that has twice the energy of diesel fuel (oxygenating agents will only help if air starvation is a problem, which it's not).

To get a 5% power gain will require a 10% dose of it, right?

That would be 3 gallons worth in a tankful. Yes, for racing that would be OK.

But there isn't a known chemical that stores twice as much energy per ounce as diesel does. In fact, diesel has one of the highest energy yields of all fuels.

I think that is what we saw when I tested Syndiesel and PowerService, that pump diesel is already very potent so there isn't huge gains there, and even running larger amounts of additive than is recommended isn't enough.

If it's a legit company they will have MSDS? posted (material safety data sheets) by fed law.

They claimed MSDS was not a top priority. If thats truely their attitude, thats not good. Sure the MSDS doesnt say anythign about the performance but its safety and the law. Its like somebody building a skill saw and saying that the gaurd was not on their priority list.

#2 diesel is very potent, 139,000BTUs per gallon. compared to gasolines 125,000BTUs or the ever so awesome ethanol at 76,000BTUs. Im a farmer but dont see ethanol being the end to all.

Anyone that buys a product like this for a performance gain is an idiot. The only thing pump diesel needs is better lubricity and thats it.

If you are looking to pick up the extra power that these "magic fluids" will do, just fill up half tank, the less weight will be more than enough to make up the "extra power".

Monster diesel...give me a freaking break....
