How Blade Works

Blade works in three different ways:

• • Acts a filter - capturing toxic particulate material (PM) as well as other solid inorganic emissions that would otherwise end up in the air
• • Blade works by accelerating the start-up of your vehicle's catalytic converter– lowers emissions
• • Increases volumetric efficiency of the engine – helps your engine burn more efficiently thereby increasing fuel economy and reducing CO2
