They've had those for years... I think it was engineered by the same guy that designed this...

Improve Gas Mileage Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Cummins Diesel

What I want to know is how do you increase gas mileage for a diesel engine?

The dumbest thing is it says to install it AFTER the turbo.
My brother works for CAT, and believe it or not he ran into a trucker that tried one on his rig. Well, needless to say it got sucked into the engine and destroyed many things to a bill totaling almost ten thousand dollars.

"For Turbo charged and supercharged vehicles, it must be placed at the throttle body, after the turbo and intercooler."

There isn't a throttle body :D So you should know not to install it.

I hear those things only work with diesels that have spark plugs.

LOL. Actually I think Chevy is the first one with a successful converted gas to diesel engine.

Use the word successful loosely. Those things blew up left and right.

Yeah, loosely for sure LOL. They were the first to put it in production anyway.

They do have that claim. For normal use they actually sort of worked for a while but didn't last near as long as a diesel should.
