Horness, of Discovery Owners Club fame, has trialed a set in his motor and (if I remember correctly) reckoned they had a marked effect.

Maybe he'll pop along and tell... :wink:

Not worth it in my view.  

if u want more power get a bigger intercooler and tweak the pump.

if u want fuel economy dont use the right foot as hard.

A guy I know put several layers of carpet under his accelerator to increase fuel economy.

He also tried the less effective method of driving by speeding up, then coasting almost to a halt, then speeding up again, which is not only going to use more fuel, but will also annoy other road users just a bit :)
