SCAM WARNING!!!
+19-21mpg would more than DOUBLE my mpg.
+60bhp is THREE times what any reputable tuner has achieved.
Devices and adverts like this ALWAYS appear whenever there is a significant rise in fuel prices.
NONE of them have ever been proven to work in independent scientific tests.
Don't waste a single penny on any of them.

Buy one and open it up, I'll bet there's nothing more than a little magnet in that box.

The seller hasn't responded to the question s I've asked him (basically do you have any proof for your claims?) - no surprise there!
Probably no point trying to get eBay to remove the item - they are less use than a chocolate teapot in cases like this.
