The Future of Intake Technology?
Come check out this device, apparently it's fresh out of the labratories!

You would think if this thing really worked we would have heared about it by now. I mean the concept seems to be real but not all things alwas work out how we would like them to. Who is going to be the first person to try this thing out?

If they can make devices small enough to be shoved in an airintake of a car and create ozone, they should try fixing our ozone layer too.

The volume of ozone that a unit small enough to fit in a car will provide will be negligable. I have a benchtop industrial model in my lab that provides on the order of 20 mL of ozone per minute. That particular instrument is about the size of three shoeboxes stacked on top of one another and weights on the order of 25 kilograms.
If you really want to go the chemical boosting route, rig up a direct injection system to spray unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide into your cylinders at TDC. That will produce one hell of a bang. In reality that is about as feasible as the ozone injector.
It was a good catch though. I like the United Nuclear title, it almost sounds like a legitimate company, such as General Atomics.

Since O3 is a number one cause of pollution, theoretically couldn't enough people equip these on their vehicle and in one big stomp on the accelerator wipe out humanity as we know it? We don't need know steenkeeng oxygen!!
