What a joke. I say it's totally fake just based on the website. There are no facts, just claims and the links are worthless, I had to close it before I threw the computer out the window.
lets see here:
a v8 engine. Talk about a model of inefficiency.
400hp on e85. So, it probably has 9:1 compression and a cam upgrade
110mpg. Yeah right. on e85, which needs about 30% more fuel per part of air than gasoline.
You never had me. You never had your car. Now me and the mad scientist have to rebuild the engine you just blew.
HP2g 110mpg and 400hp

lol - funny quote.
I didn't even check out the link, but my response is just on the plausibility of it being possible, regardless of this particular claim. Sorry if I blew the intake, not double clutching like I should!

Has anyone figured out what "technology" they are selling? Are they selling whole engines? fuel management? Kits? or what?
The only thing I can think of is a much much leaner hotter burn durring cruise because of the high octain of e85 and maybe other improvements to fend off detonation or a meltdown. ?? But yeah with 400hp its gonna burn alot of fuel when the hammer is down.
Also are they turbo or supercharged?
Found this: "The specifics are top secret but by building an engine that runs on just ethanol they’ve created an engine that can run at a higher compression ratio, creating more power using less fuel."

Looks to be engines they're selling. I watched a couple of the vids. Who knows? Star Trek communicators weren't real either but look at your cell phone.

Its because you are only burning 15% regular 93 octane on e85. So it would work out to be about 100 mpg of regular gas on the mixture.
This is just a desperate guy trying to make money in troubled times.

They dont claim 100 mpg of gasoline. Its 100 mpg of e85.
Plus you just cant open a factory and get backing and orders without some proof.
this vid has a little more info.

the green mustang in the beginning is not one of the 100 mph ones. They show the front of the top secret black one...is that an intercooler?? or just the rad.?
