Well, I'll say right up front that I'm digging for my hip waders before slogging into this - my BS meter is pegged.
So what are the details of this "orange test" for your baseline MPG check.
Of course - this is the out.
If it doesn't work as advertised, you must not have installed & tuned it correctly - so either shell out $$$ for a certified installer or $$$ for the course. So then even if they have to refund for the kit (which probably has about 300% markup or higher) they still make their $$$ on the training and installation. And I'll bet that getting your refund is a long drawn-out process with plenty of caveats, gotchas and PITA factor - if its possible at all. In the end many will likely abandon the process and write it off.
Uhm - by selling a quality product and/or service that works and is suitably protected by patents and such if necessary. You know, the way the rest of the legitimate market works.
I did my "orange test" today which is where we test the exact hwy MPG to get a baseline for the at least 50% gain or money back claim. this has to be performed exactly as the instructions say in order to get the money back if you end up needing it.
Mileage with cruise set at 65mph was 17.9mpg
I cannot test city mpg with the kit for the improvement because I cannot recreate the exact scenario due to traffic lights ect.
So guaranteed I will hit 8.9mpg better which is 26.8... lets see if I can hit that but I am planning on much more. I am setting my GOAL at 35mpg highway

OH! and theres more ways to tune, its hidden they teach us how in the classes but we sign a contract saying we won't disclose how SORRY!

if everyone knew how how would we make any money?
