In a Press Release received from Bioperformance PR (pr@mybpbiz.com) comes the following information:

BioPerformance Reaches Agreement with
State of Texas

January 23, 2007, Dallas, TX. BioPerformance, Inc. today entered into an agreement with the State of Texas which provides several million dollars for the State of Texas to make restitution for any existing issues of customer satisfaction and opens the door for the marketing of BioPerformance Fuel very soon. BioPerformance Fuel is an additive designed to increase fuel economy and decrease emissions. Recently completed testing of BioPerformance Fuel by an independent laboratory using the Federal Test Procedure (FTP) and Highway Fuel Economy Test (HFET) protocols of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in a group of vehicles established a reasonable degree of confidence that the product gives a real improvement in fuel economy and reduction in harmful emissions. (The laboratory report is attached). News reports show that the EPA has previously tested more than 100 other fuel additives under its FTP and HFET protocols, with no demonstrable positive results. The company believes that BioPerformance Fuel is the first fuel additive proven effective by an independent laboratory under the EPA’s strict protocols.

BioPerformance today announced: “We are extremely pleased to be putting behind us the action by the State of Texas. We also are very pleased with the test results obtained so far. Distributors may expect to resume marketing the product soon.

“Several months ago, BioPerformance Fuel was the target of numerous media reports challenging its effectiveness. We believe these reports relied on the evidence of under-informed ’experts’ or ineffective or non-existent testing. To our knowledge, none of the reports were supported by tests comparable to the Federal Test Procedure and Highway Fuel Economy Test protocols used by the independent laboratory in its recent testing of BioPerformance Fuel.”

In its agreement with the State of Texas, BioPerformance specifically denied any wrong-doing. However, BioPerformance reports: “It is important to ensure that the product and sales program meet all lawful requirements so that all of our energy can be devoted to helping consumers save gas and reduce pollution.”

If your Independent Testing was so positive....

Using the EPA's criteria for the evaluation of fuel additives, the FTP and HFET tests conducted by this laboratory provide a reasonable degree of confidence that the product causes a real improvement in fuel economy and reduction in emissions. The emissions tested were Hydrocarbons (HC) which showed an average reduction of 5.387%, Carbon Monoxide (CO) which showed an average reduction of 7.315%, and Nitrous Oxide (NOx) which showed an average reduction of 3.513%.

... then why are you keeping the full report secret

Ok, so it reduces emissions by a couple of percentage points - but why not trumpet the 'real improvement' in fuel economy? - is it 40%, 20%, 5% - 0.001%

Except as stated in this report, BioPerformance, Inc. considers the specific results of the tests to be proprietary information. For this reason, we have no authority to and will not release or discuss the results unless instructed to do so by BioPerformance, Inc.

Keep an eye on the website for full details.
