Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I sent these scam artists a $ 20.00 pay pal and they never shipped me any product. Their website guarantees their product with a money back guarantee and all but - They never ship the product!

I called several times and left messages with no call back. I finally reached them and they claimed to ship their product via first class mail, although it never came. I called them after the first shipment never arrived and they promised me to send out another shipment which, to no surprise, never came. I called them again and they claimed that the first two shipments "must have leaked" and that's why they never arrived. They agreed to my request to send the product again via UPS ground and to e-mail me the tracking number and of course, they never e-mailed me anything and to no surprise, nothing ever came. It's hard to believe that someone can lie so casually and completely and think that they can get away with it forever. Anyway, I feel obligated to do all that I can to see to it that they do not continue to get away scamming people. I guess they think that the amount of money is so small that no one will try too hard to get their money back.

Hi Folks! Just thought you would all be interested in knowing that the rebuttal from Bob at Performance plus is a BOLD OUT AND OUT LIE! He still has not refunded money as he has said in the rebuttal. He NEVER SHIPPED ANY PRODUCT TO DATE DON'T GET RIPPED OFF! IT DOES NOT MATTER IF HIS PRODUCT WORKS OR NOT IF HE NEVER SHIPS IT!! This OPERATION IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for NOT supporting their rip off website. What goes around comes around and they will get their's SOON ENOUGH. They can't ship orders probably because they are not paying their vendors and people who work for them. TAKE my warning and DON"T GET SUCKERED LIKE I DID!!!! There is a product like theirs called BLUE SKY that WORKS and DOES GET SHIPPED. ALSO There is now a product available at all the auto parts stores called EXP that is the same thing and it WORKS and is 1/3 the price! Help me in putting these lying scam artists out of business! Let's RID THE INTERNET of LYING SCAM ARTISTS like PERFORMANCE PLUS!!!!!!!!!!

ABC??? American Broadcast Company

Is this the same American Broadcast Company that put Diane Sawyer into Food Lion to show how bad the company is and how it bleaches chicken and fish to keep them from smelling and yet, the only person doing ANYTHING illegal, was Diane Sawyer? The same ABC that lost when Food Lion sued them over the story? The same ABC that commited FRAUD, as admitted by John Stossel, over a story about organic foods? The same ABC who's intrepid reporter, Diane Sawyer(again) managed to interview Michael Jackson and shift the blame of his molestation charges over to the boy, and is currently being sued over it? The same ABC who's Nightline program was used to belittle the 84 Swiftboat Vets for telling their side of the story while praising John Kerry at every turn? Do you see a trend here? I wouldn't put any more faith into ANYTHING ABC or their affiliates reported on any more than I would NBC, remember the exploding Chevy pick-ups(that only caught fire when they were detonated from remote control), or from CBS(nothing better than forging your own documents on Microsoft Word and not realizing they didn't have PC's 32 years ago). Snake oil is all the same. If your car won't pass a smog test, FIX it.

The purpose of pollution controls is to control pollution, not just to pass a test!

Yes, a bottle of additive may help you pass the smog test. But, when the additive is all gone, what then? Your car goes back to polluting the air! Right? Once you pass the smog, and have your new registration, try to fix your car so it runs properly. Here, they have roadside sensors. You drive through, and they can tell that your car puts out too much pollution. How are you gonna beat that? Add a bottle of additive with every tank of gas?

One respondant said sarcastically, "you put a bottle into your tank and voila! you pass your smog." Although I'm not familiar with this product, ABC NEWS affiliate KIFI did a report on a product that does just that. Obviously, to pass the News Department of a network affiliate like ABC (they could have their license revoked), means some investigation was done into this.

I would like to respond to the complaint by John in Rowlett, Texas John ordered by check using PAYPAL. The check cleared PAYPAL on 8/31/2004 7:13 AM. We shipped John's product on 9/2/2004. About 9/17/2004 we received a call from John about his order not arriving. We started a follow-up regarding his shipment. We called John back and told him we would re-ship his order which we did on 9/20/2004.(the following working day) About a week later we were notified by PAYAPL that John was requesting a refund. At this point we felt that John would not only receive the product but his $20 back through the disputed transaction. PAYPAL subsequently declined to issue John a refund. Since PAYPAL declined to issue the refund we felt it is our responsibility to refund John's $20 which is being processed and will be refunded through PAYPAL. It is unfortunate that John experienced such problems with our company. It is our goal to completely satisfy every customer but we know that is impossible. We did have some problems with our shipper in September involving at least nine orders,. The problem seams to be rectified.

So, you pour this magic elixir into the gas tank and, viola!!, your car passes an emissions test. Riiiiiight. Your car fails because the engine isn't running properly, the same reason catalytic converters fail. Take it as a lesson learned. I have found that same crap online for as little as $5/can. Go get your car TUNED-UP and pass the test. A TUNE-UP, by the way, does NOT consist of merely replacing spark plugs. That is a small part of it. The entire fuel and ignition systems have to be gone through along with all of the sensors and the intake. This takes time and money. I know because I do this for a living.
