Personally ive noticed the flat spots have more-or-less gone eg on the lights say and acceleration feels smoother.

And can't really comment on fuel saving (if any) as of yet as only had it n for 3 days.

I thought the whole idea of this device was to save fuel? And that that statistic was based on data gained from tests on a 1988 engine with carbs, so nothing like a modern engine?
Anything else is in your head mate, IMO.

If its stopped a problem like that, then its only masking it up, you need to fix the root problem.

I have one of these, have it closed off, can make a good selling point to chavs
