The State of Texas Attorney General filed a criminal charges against Bioperformance. The Attorney General stated "We will aggressively fight these con artists who cynically exploit the public's concerns about high gas prices to line their own pockets."

He referred to them con artists. That is exactly what they are. It seems, if you had put moth balls into your gas tank you would accomplish the same thing as the fuel pill. The fuel pill was found to be basically the chemical equivalent of mothballs.

Bioperformance and it's owners were really only out to recruit as many investors or paying members as they could into what at this point looks like a full blown pyramid scheme. That was according to statements made by the attorney general.

There are still companies and products out there that are working the same scam. MPG-Cap is one. Another one is Enviro-Max. They work on the same premise as Bioperformance. they claim you will get significant increases in fuel economy by dropping their pills into your gas tank.

Most of their testing and claims are based on testimonials from drivers. There is no way that a driver without sophisticated and expensive equipment can effectively measure the miles per gallon differences from an additive.

The normal driving conditions of weather, traffic volume and stop light patterns have a tremendous impact on any days fuel economy. There is no way for the average driver to take those factors into consideration to be able to run a believable test.

Enviromax Plus claims that it makes the fuel in your engine burn more efficiently. The claim is Enviro-max will lower the unburned fuel in your engine from 15 percent down to 1 to 2 percent. Fortunately for you and unfortunately for Enviromax, todays engines actually burn gas with an efficiency of about 98 to 99 percent. That is without any help from any additive.

The bottom line, save your money. Don't believe the wild claims of these modern day snake oil salesmen. As always if it seems to good to be true, it is!
