Just want to say a big thank you to E.T.S uk as purchased the Generation 2 supercharger a few weeks ago and works like a charm could not believe the performance gain on my Honda civic 1.4i 16v

Not suprising, I've owned electric pencil sharpeners with probably more torque.

You'd be suprised what people will chuck on their cars in an effort for perceived power, kinda like the young bloke at work who does our onsite security who owns a sube RX. Its not a bad little car, runs alright when its not in the panel shop from him hitting things/other road users with but anyway the muppet shows me this X-Force muffler he's found near a speedhump near where he lives.

Finders keepers, doesnt seem damaged and all the bits on it are ok apart from where some bogan drove over a speed hump too fast and scratched it, leaving it behind and not noticing it... :worship:

So I figure I'll help him swap it out with the original on the Sube and leave it at that if he wants a chrome cock hanging off the back of his wagon for whatever reason. Goes buzzing off sounding like a happy flat-four chainsaw and comes back the next week.

"Aw man I can feel the difference!"

'Where? From your ears bleeding?"

"No, serious bro it just feels like its got more power."

You cant make people understand these things with rational logic so I gave up trying to make them.

Haha some1 asks if it will work on a kawasaki bike. They told them they havent tested it on bikes.

Looks like a bit of silicon hose with a pod filter and an actuator or blow of valve. Some1 should buy 1 and do some real testing then report them to ebay for false avertising.

Revs to 40000rpm wat a load of sh*t.

Haha wat a joke!

Looks like a pod filter, silicone hose and I'm guessing an electronic BOV.

..

SICKKKK BRO..... lol racsov500 ... The dude in your signature picture owns 3.. TRIPLE FILTERS BRO.. SIKK

I love the quasi credibility on there. Like the quasi-tuning theory, the quasi-dyno graph, it's all voodoo.. gotta love it. .. I also like the part where it says will not ship to canada blah blah and blah. I'm thinking to myself probably from out standing court cases.

Also people are buying it checkout his feedback.. this guy couldnt afford the stage 3 he had to go the stage 2.. only revs to 37,500rpm - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...item=8048768324

idiots.

I couldn't NOT do it. I reported this guy to ebay.. However in writing my letter I noticed this guy doesn't lie anywhere in the post. But he's still misleading people.

This reminds me of a mate from school, He bought a set of those sports pedals and told me he can feel a little bit more acceleration with them. I asked him how it would do this and this was his explaination...

"Because the surface of the pedal is higher you can push the accelerator pedal down further and faster. Because you can push it down that extra bit it opens the motor more.... meaning you can go faster...."

BTW, this is a 100% true story :teehee:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
