What it is - The HP2g Skip Fire™ is an engine management system capable of operating an engine on any number of cylinders upon demand and from the maximum number down to one. Rotating the firing cylinder to saves wear. The Skip Fire can change the fuel economy in targeted vehicles, thereby reducing fuel costs by 33%. In test Semi (over the road loaded) it averaged 10.44mpg with Skip Fire and 6.39mpg without.
How it works – The HP2g Skip Fire™ - Variable Displacement shuts off fuel to cylinders and rotates the cylinders of fire. This can go down to as low as 1 cylinder (after normal engine operation temperature). The engine is still opening and closing the valves bringing in cool outside air which is introduced to a HOT CYLINDER. This allows the air to expand pushing the piston = STIRLING ENGINE effect (from 1816)
Competitive Advantages – The HP2g Skip Fire™ system is far advanced from the variable displacement systems currently manufactured by the world’s OEMs, (which only operate to shut down half of an engine’s cylinders always in the same firing position (in the automotive market only)). The current systems also fall short of the fuel savings and emissions reductions offered with the Skip Fire. The Skip Fire has the ability to be updated and serviced at a shop or at home via a laptop computer through the internet. The Skip Fire application is unparalleled in the automotive & transportation world.

SEMA 2010 - NEW PRODUCT !
Flex Fuel Chip is a small, computer board, engine add-on device that allows an engine to be run on either gasoline or blends of up to 85% ethanol fuel as the driver chooses. The Flex Fuel Chip will cut fuel costs for drivers of cars, SUVs and light trucks by an average of $.50 to $.75 per gallon cheaper and reduce their vehicle’s emissions output by a minimum of 1/3. For ultimate convenience,this unit can be serviced and updated over the internet.
Future step for this chip will be reprogramming to include HP2g variable displacement as an option.
How it works: The HP2g Variable Displacement shuts off fuel to cylinders and it also rotating the cylinders of fire. This can go as low as down to 1 cylinder ( after normal engine operation temperature ). The engine is still opening and closing the valves bring in cool outside air which is introduced to a HOT CYLINDER. This allows the air to expand making the engine = STIRLING ENGINE
Opportunities - (1) Reducing oil consumption and harmful emissions through conservation and cleaner burning technologies has become a priority in the USA. (2) US Department of Transportation, there are 250 Million registered vehicles in the U.S. and 806 Million cars and light trucks world-wide (3) More than 450,000 law enforcement vehicles and 1.8 million taxi cabs in operation in the U.S. alone (4) The Flex Fuel Chip will permit target market consumers to purchase or keep their more practical and comfortable vehicles and easily convert them into flex-fuel capability giving themhigher horsepower and saving in fuel costs.
