One of those would be my dream car, poly green or cobolt

When it says "Kit is capable of 400rwkw+ on a purpose built engine." what does that mean in terms of purpose built engine?

An engine built for the purpose of handling a 400rwkw boosted setup without blowing up.

ITS CFI ANDI6 NOT V6 WHAT A DUMB SHIT!
not you the bloke selling it

Perhaps lowering?!?!?! It looks like its been raised to look like a small 4WD



and the wing.. words cant describe how bad that looks

the person who owners that red ea needs to be raped with a knife!!!...... TWICE!

He should join one of the forums that caters for e-series cars... The question is which one?

For those interested, there is no 'Buy it now' price and the dude thinks this the motor could be from some other type of Ford

hi mate. no buy it now price. whatever it gets up to will sell. not sure where the motor is from. perhaps from another ford. Cheers, anir

my eyes are bleeding. god damn fast and furious franchise, making people think they're car would look awesome with huge ass wing. that cars sad

That looks alright.

You'd get your money back wrecking it out easily.

I'd buy it but cbf.

That SVO is very very appealing...

Is that a genuine SVO cluster? Thought the logos were alot smaller than that. Definately worth it for rims/grill/spoiler anyway.

No electrical drain either - just pure power with no loss of efficiency!

brb, buying two for the V8

do they just make the air spin into it? :S

my guess is it just forces air into it.
probly works in theory but i doubt you would notice anything.

can you elaborate on how it works in theory?

I've seen the ads for the 'hiclone' thing but this just looks like the air makes it spin

I'd like somebody to explain it to me too

It is actually spun by the air moving past it. There is no way it can create positive pressure (i.e. what you would normally get from a turbo or supercharger). It will actually make the intake more inefficient, as it is one more restriction between open air and the combustion chamber.

LOL - "No purchases have been made."

I've seen something similar done on another forum for laughs. Some dude got an old computer fan, and whacked it on his magna's intake. All that happened was it spun up really fast and made a whirring noise.

it doesn't actually work like a turbo/supercharger they compress the air. the theory behind this is to clean up the turbulent air coming in the intake and turning it into a constant stream.

It also would increase the air pressure into the headers and by doing that it should mean the car wont starve for air.

thats my interpretation of it anyways.

Clean up the turbulent air? So what happens when this allegedly non-turbulent air enters the MPFI/BBM manifold hmmmm? It's not a straight tube from this fan thingy to the cylinder.

Increase the air pressure into the headers? Huh? How?

Starve for air? Yep, shoving an obstacle in the intake will definitely cure any air starvation the engine has...

Oooh I seen this car taking off from the lights once.....sounds very very nice.
I am however suprised I havn't seen it more than once, considering how close I live to the guy...hmmm

Computer fan?
Who was he trying to kid

There is NO WAY it could do that. If anything, it will make the air more turbulent!

wolf wrote:It also would increase the air pressure into the headers and by doing that it should mean the car wont starve for air.

It cannot increase air pressure.

If it actually worked some car manufacturer or successful racer would have done it by now.

Unless you actually need parts then no. Gli's suck as parts cars.

Like i said thats the theory of it.

is there a verifiable (hell, I'll even settle for wikipedia) reference to this theory? I really can't see how it "cleans up" turbulent air entering an engine.

1) NO FAN/BLOCKAGE:

Air enters snorkel, airbox, filter --> flows pretty much straight through the intake piping --> gets split up at the manifold --> cops a hit of atomised fuel --> air/fuel mix enters cylinders for compression/combustion.

2) WITH FAN/BLOCKAGE:

Air enters snorkel, airbox, filter --> fan/blockage hinders air movement, air is deflected off the fan blades, and the energy required to spin the fan slows up the air coming in. "Spun" air begins to "straighten out" again as it makes its way to the manifold (shortest route = straight there, not corkscrewing inwards) --> gets split up at the manifold (helloooo turbulence) --> cops a hit of atomised fuel (helloooo more turbulence as the atomised fuel smashes into the incoming air) --> air/fuel mix enters cylinders for compression/combustion.

If you want better air flow on the intake side, make sure your intake runners are of equal length (so you don't have rich cylinders & lean cylinders... in an extreme case), are polished (for minimum friction/turbulence), and are relatively short & fat to make the most of high rpm use. AND have them/your head port-matched. But that's looking at $$$$$$$$ and a heap of fvcking around just to gain a tiny bit more response & maybe one or two killer wasps. <-- I'm talking about std manifolds here

well there ya go you just proved the theory wrong.
