Car Electric Turbo Super Charger or cyclone

Hi guys,

I juz wanna know,what the effect to our engine if using stuffs stated above? Pic below s attached are the example and with diagram.

I think it just help for NA might slight improve engine power but the main concern it will screw up the A/F ratio resulted increase of FC.

 

[thomzcruz80]

So how to control the a/f ratio then? Need to install more gadget?

 

[mines998]

ECU will base on your intake air to calculate the fuel need to supply. The concern is since been force to your intake the ECU will supply more fuel. Theoritical it should give you more power but I not sure how is the FC will look like...I worry you get little power but spend lot more on fuel. I might be wrong maybe sifu here can educate me aswell.

I doubt the electric motor will spin fast enough to give any positive pressure into the intake, the blades on the motor could actually restrict air intake when u go full throttle :hmmmm:

Teams of japanese/euro engineers have spent millions of man hours and money on researching the air flow characteristics in your intake system.
They then designed that aforementioned system based on a set of production parameters which include optimized induction as a criteria.
As a result and in most cases, your stock air box or paper based filter stands as the most efficient and power/cost effective solution for your engine.
I really doubt that a dinky little electric motor or poorly engineered turbine is going to have much effect/pros to your induction system. I am quite certain, the research-less accessories mess with the fundamental air flow of your system.
If this stupid little things works, I am sure; hi perfomance NA beasts like the Ferraris and Lambos would have been putting this contraptions in a long, long time ago.

Btw... I am no engineer and my logic here is purely by deduction and common sense.

don't waste money and time on this....

get the real supercharger instead of this...


with that diagram i doubt that that "charger" could be controlled according to your engine rev/throttle position....i only see on-off switch hooked to the throttle cable....

furthermore....like other ppl said, the fan speed mostlikely can't cope with the engine air needs...

i think iszo made a test on this type of gadget and he hated it :D

 

[AD_EG]

looks like it causes more restriction than any good...

imagine some screw or blade fails and gets sucked in through the TB and into the manifold... cant imagine what will happen wei...

actually, i've tried putting a computer fan on my 4AFE carb engine.. fit it nicely to get positive pressure..

the result, more power at low rev.. less power at high rev.. and fuel consumption is BAD

I did a test on a product similar to the cyclone.

Have a read. I hate anything that makes astronomical claims but has no real results to show. The electric fan is no better than the cyclone. It's still a fan that's blocking your intake passage and whats worse, it's turning which probably limits the amount of air the engine can suck in.

If you have a proper CAI done and have a high compression NA engine (or even a standard engine with some mild compression mods), place a piece of ice on your palm and hold it in front of the CAI. Then get someone to floor the pedal and watch as your CAI sucks in the ice cube like a vacuum cleaner. That's how strong the air is when it goes into your intake, do you think the fan can keep up?
