Click here to download report.
Conclusion: The use of FriktionTek's XADO Technology:
• Demonstrated a significant and repeatable improvement in fuel economy
• Resulted in an increase in horsepower
• Showed a marked reduction in engine "blow-by"
• The increase in horsepower and reduction in "blow-"by" will contribute to increased engine miles to overhaul.
Compression Test
AIR PLANE ENGINE: A 2002 Cirrus SR22 (350 HP Continental Engine) was at risk of being grounded for low compression of the 5th cylinder, which would require a $30,000 new engine. After the FriktionTek treatment, the geometry of the cylinders and overall compression was normalized and the 5th cylinder was greatly improved. The need for a new engine was no longer required. Airplane was flown for more than six months between the baseline test and FriktionTek Treatment. Since 7 months passed after baseline test, so the compression of all cylinders was most likely lower at the time of treatment.

Emissions Test
1994 Chevy S10 Pickup. Prior to FriktionTek Treatment, Albuquerque Environmental Health Department VPMD performed an emission test of a 1994 Chevrolet S10 Pickup on 6/11/07. Ten months later, the truck was treated with FriktionTek® Engine Treatment. The truck was tested again on 5/8/08, showing a 86% reduction in emissions overall.

* Emissions testing was not performed on the vehicle directly prior to FriktionTek Treatment, so emissions after 10 months of driving with no maintenance work may have been higher than shown on the test on 6/11/07.
† Reduction in CO2 is due to reduction of gas use age rather than changes in emission particulate composition.
MPG Case Study
Sunset Logistics, a building supply delivery company located in Ft Worth, TX, tested FriktionTek by XADO Diesel Engine Treatment in July 14, 2008. Test results of the 10 tractors showed an average improvement of 8.5% (from 6.2 MPG to 6.51 MPG) under very heavy load conditions.

Conclusion
After application of FriktionTek's XADO Technology on a 1987 Toyota pick-up truck, we confirm the following:
• Gas consumption has dropped by 12%
• Engine runs smoother, with less noise
• Oil burning has decreased
• Cylinder compression increased an average of 8%
• Vehicle maximal speed (in 5th gear) increased from 130 km/hour to 155 km/hour...a 16% increase in engine power.
Tsinghau University Scientific Study of XADO Technology
Click here to download the PDF Report. (36 MB)
Tsinghua University (regarded as the "MIT of China" ) performed an in-depth study of FriktionTek's XADO Technology consisting of both laboratory and field tests. Their conclusion:
XADO Technology has triple effect: lubrication, restoring and surface modification.
• Today, this technology is the most effective way to reduce friction.
• Very efficient way to save energy and resources.
• The most simple and economical way to harden the surface.
Below are excerpts from the study:
Tests of that same diesel engine cylinder show a significant decrease in the friction coefficient when treated with FriktionTek's XADO Technology.
