surbo ? Useless ?

[mines998]

If I was on a low budget, it makes it all the more important for me to be prudently selective with my money and to spend my limited resources only on proven products.

If this is proven, why is it not universally endorsed by the industry ?

The strange logic here is that a stock car is somehow made superior by sticking in a 'miracle gadget'.....the idea being that something installed is better than nothing installed. Strange also that a low budget is used as an excuse to choose this product rather than patiently saving up for better and proven products.

Agree! If the is miracle gadget make the big different in power then I think Turbo face out long time already. Just bear in mind want to make turbo car faster is hard if NA faster is even harder. Good example is V-Tech

bro, piggyback rm1k, standalone ecu Rm3k ++
surbo rm170.

which 1 would u go for if u driving wira 1.3? with low budget?

Low budget use a beer can and DIY your own surbo. This thing is so cheap to make you wouldn't believe how much $$$ they make by selling to you at 170.

Maybe Danz's cousin is not into that car crazy to buy something that is more than 1k juz to increase the power. Or maybe he's just searching for a lil more power to climb the hill or whatsoever.
Why dont we suggest a better piping flow for him? just my 2 cents

I don't know Danz's cousin or exactly how keen he is with cars.

All I know is, personally I will not put any gimicky gadget, no matter how cheap, into my car on the blind faith of dubious promises of performance. There are too many unknowns with this thing in terms of what it will do to your vehicle, both good or bad. Sales talk is sales talk. I have heard a lot of them, from people peddling magical snake oil to dragon's teeth.

Call me conservative or prudish, but I like my car, and I won't feed it with stuff that don't already have a ready endorsement from the industry and community.

But hey...it's his money and his car. He risk what he wants.

[mysayasan]

useless one laa... surbo will create air restriction in ur intake ram pipe at high revs...

agreed

 

[drexchan]

drex still famous wat...but now famous for his shop la heheheh

apa cerita?

 

[D7zul]

surbo = air restriction = will loose power..

velocity stack = sucking denser air = more power..

search for 'velocity stack' in wikipedia & google for images.. extremely beautiful
