Cal-Cat is the tag for Calorie Catalyst.
It is a patent pending coolant-to-fuel heat exchanger that uses wasted
or unused heat from the engine's coolant to pre-heat the fuel. The fuel chamber of the Cal-Cat is coated with a proprietary
catalyst that chemically breaks long chain hydro-carbon molecules into smaller, faster burning molecules. Heat and catalysis makes the fuel burn more cleanly and efficiently. In
short, it enhances combustion performance increasing power and economy.
Here's what professional truckers have to say about the SS14 Cal-Cat :
"I pull a car trailer with a 2006 Freightliner powered by a 500HP Cummins and run basically the same route week after week. I normally put in $150 of fuel every Saturday but the first Saturday after installing the Cal-Cat I could only put in $100. I believe that is a 30% improvement in fuel mileage. I used to top some of the hills on my run at 55 to 60, now I am topping them at speeds I would rather not put into print. This thing is phenomenal!!! I have no problem telling all my fellow truckers about this great product. Well worth the money."Abner S.
""I have been driving a truck for 34 years and have been driving this truck (2006 Mack CL700 powered by a 600Hp Cummins) for the company for 1 year. I noticed a significant power increase immediately after the install. The truck has more torque and pulls the heavy loads easier. I recently pulled the heaviest piece of equipment we own, a rock crusher that weighs over 100,000 pounds, out of a quarry and up very hilly roads back to the shop. I never had to shift out of 4th gear, it actually gained a gear pulling the hills under heavy loads very impressive."James W., New Jersey
Cal-Cat F.A.Q.'s
Will the Cal-Cat void my vehicle's manufacturer's warranty? No, under the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act of 1975, no manufacturer may void any warranty of a vehicle due to any aftermarket part installed on a vehicle, unless they can prove first that the part is solely responsible for any damage.
Was the Cal-Cat designed to increase fuel efficiency? No. The Cal-Cat was designed to increase performance. Through testing we discovered it decreased emissions and in most cases increased fuel efficiency.
Is the Cal-Cat going to give you better fuel mileage? In most cases yes but, the fuel mileage depends more on the driver and the condition of the vehicle, in addition to how efficient the vehicle is from the factory.
Will it give you better throttle response and the feel of power? Yes. It will allow more of the fuel to be used during the first part of the power stroke and not wasted and blown into the environment as pollution.
Will Cal-Cat help a marginal failure of air quality certification testing ? Yes Definitely ! Testing done by a third party showed reduced emissions by 35.48% and increased fuel efficiency by an astounding 22-29% on a 427 HP tri-axle Mack dump truck with a GVW of 80,000 lbs. Other diesel vehicles we tested showed similar results; lots of added power, lowered emissions and 15-25% increase in fuel efficiency.
Will a Cal-Cat fix my worn out engine? No. It will in most cases help it regain some of its power and help reduce its emissions just by the way it works. But it will not fix what is already worn out or broken.
Is the Cal-Cat a Filter? No. but it will act like a filter catching dirt and deposits.
Is Cal-Cat CARB certified ? Not yet but it has been submitted and we expect approval in Oct 2010
