Gday Hairs and Bob
I did read google for about an hour, and found that the only people with a good thing to say about them , are the people that sell them. Thanks for your replies .

As a word of warning, tell him not to fit any more than 3 or 4 depending on whether it is a turbo or non turbo diesel or a petrol. Some doubters may scoff but my BIL's mates boss fitted too many and got booked for some pollution offence. Seems as he was driving along the fuel tank was overflowing out the breather and leaving fuel all over the road. Luckily he had a couple of empty jerry cans and managed to drain nearly 40 litres out to get him home.

Thanks Pop
Ill let him know

Thanks Scrubby. I will make that suggestion . How's your trip going?

MKate with a TD Landrover 110 had two fitted that same day and reported the same results. There was also a test but a car mag about 8.3 years ago and they found a marginal improvement with two fitted and negligible with one fitted.

Thanks Bonz

Why would it begin to boost at lower rpm with a hiclown fitted?
Was the magazine test a "seat of the pants" test ,or on a dyno?
Did they accept advertising contracts from Hiclone?

These things are really easy to test when you have the right equipment and no one has ever given them the thumbs up.


I know a diesel mechanic who has tested them on his dyno to show customers what a load of bull they are.
Dyno results dont lie.

I dunno why Ross, all I know is what it does. Actual experience in my car.

The mag test was a tested circuit in the same vehicle with none one and two hiclones fitted. Of course every magazine article is written with some of the payola from the crowd getting their equipment tested (if thats what you are inferring), so I can not vouch for their impartiality, but I can for mine. Dunno how it works but it does seem to. In two vehicles, different makes, both turbo diesel.

The mechanic at the place that fitted thenm was sold on them, he had fitted a couple to a XR Falcon and it made a huge difference. And I saw no evidence of payola in his pockets.

LOL..! How about 6 and he will end up with fuel in his tank re-occurring.!

Tell him to invest in the Pyramid Scheme at the same time, he will make thousands and not have to worry about Cyclones and Hyclones..!

LOL .

Yer i laughed too

If and when you find that you find that they dont work I hope that you have better luck than I did trying to get my money back.

IMO...they make an excellent..altho expensive.. frisbee .

Cheers Keith
