That critic guy was dickhead.

agreed..." well you wont necessarily be getting much fuel economy because you have to carry all the water, adding extra weight"

that guys knob... i dont think an extra 20kg is going to affect shit... almost the same as a sub

not so sure about the power output staying the same though

The reporter is an asshole. He spilt all that water :blink:

But the nerd made up for it when he drank the exhaust fumes :blink:

Funny, our kids are gonna come on these forums and ask "How do i mod my car?" and the reply is "buy a bottle of water"

haha! yea drinking the exhaust was a bit nasty... an yea the critic has no idea... im still skeptical on the power though... how could it stay the same with all that water???

Speaking to my old man, they used to build water powered engines for thier race cars. same basic principle of a steam train. apparently because you cant combust steam you can actualy 'gain power' if its tuned right. Also apparently a steam engine makes more torque than a deisel :)

in my old mans race cars though they would only switch to water power at the exits of corners as a 'power boost' an then convert it back to petrol on the straights and corner entries.... this is all hard for me to beleive

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
