OEM Supercharged 323Fs/P5s from Switzerland

[azeli73]

the link states that the ford got 193. however I can't make out just how much of the supercharger is being used.

Translation: The next day power checking, according to of 193 horsepower target being 40 horsepower over, vis-a-vis normal 149 horsepower satisfactory!

I'm no doctor, but I think that intake manifold has a tumor.

Obtaining you probably smile, denouncing, it is good. Strange motor sound is the drug, it is the stimulant.

Power egg appears to be same thing as adding 2-4 ounces of acetone to every 10 gallons of gas-it initiates complete combustion of the gas. I like the s/c setup on the ricoh racing link showing s/c on FSZE motor. Looks like it eliminates the strut tower bar though. I might actually consider doing this, with more research........somebody, anybody hurry & talk me out of it.

Never heard of the adding of acetone. I've heard of adding some other industrial solvent (can't remember the name) but if it's what I'm thinking that's just to raise the octane level of your fuel (ie. homebrew race fuel). And definitely not something you want to leave in you fuel system very long, as it will eat away at gaskets and seals.

what this thing seems to be is like those silly magnet things sold over here that wrap around your fuel line that supposively ionizes the fuel and enables it to burn more effeceintly. And it looks like you drop this ceramic ball that has some rare earth metal into your tank and then after 100,000 Kilometers you fish it out with a magnet on a string and replace it with a new one. It's suppose to improve power and gas mileage.

Thinking of Toulene?

Yeah, I've seen these as well. People actually do that s***. It's mind numbing. I'm sure we've all seen these for your factory airbox..

Xylene as well.

Its called toulene and its pure octane if you add about 10% to your gas it just increases the octane level

 

[Reffoxel]

Yep that's the ticket.

Go to smartgas.net & read up. I'm not looking to raise octane levels, my car does not need it. I'm talkin about more mileage & less carbon build up from unburnt fuel (wasted fuel). I'm getting 50-75 miles more a tank depending on driving habits which is about a $4.50 - $6.00 rebate on every tank at current prices ($2.10 a gallon for regular). The more gas costs the more money this saves me. The gallon of acetone costs approx $14.00 & there are approx 25 tanks in that gallon at the rate of 4-5 ounces in 14 gallons of gas. 25 X 4.50 - 6.00 = $112.50 - $150.00 of savings that the gallon of acetone generates so it turns $14.00 into $112.50 - $150.00 or more if tamer driving habits are utilized. Getting 9-10x returns on your investments many other places these days? My tailpipe is not sooty carbon black either so I'm guessing this also might slow the egr clogging issues these cars have. We'll see. I'm well aware of the other little octane raising tricks. That would be silly for this vehicle & not what I'm doing.

I can't be the only one who noticed that it's an AWD sport 20? that thing must be awesome!

They have it in Japan since long time ago.
The body/fender is also different than a regular Protege.
