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:

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
