Super nice Turbo Upgrade for Stock PRV – no more ‘bit of slug’

[Dangermouse]

Remember these words of wisdom: “I can tell you stock Delorians and quite a bit of slugs so the Turbo is a super nice up-grade”.

Now you too can get this super nice upgrade and your delorian will no longer be a bit of slug.

But how much will this cost, I hear you ask?

I laugh at your $6000 Stage IIs
I pity your $10,000 Stage IIIs
I give the bird to your $x,000 Spec I

This “Super Turbo Upgrade” that will take my car from slug to awesome is only $170.

All electric, both supercharger and turbo charger!! No bothersome piping to worry about. Saves fuel too. All I need is a 3” intake hose and a 12V supply!!! I’m there. Can’t wait to install.

And only $170 for a 15-60HP gain. Awesome. No wonder DPI and Houston don’t mention this on their pages. Why would you spend big bucks on one of their system when less than two Benjamin’s will get you a 50% HP gain.

Darn, won’t work on carb cars. They'll still be bit of slug as I blow them away with my super-turbo-charged car.

[ALEXAKOS]

This is a good laugh if it works.
I just don't like those toy blades in that filter.
Doesn't seem like it is durable...
Or I am just jealous cause I am heading for carbs! hahaha

You do realize that doesn't even have a motor in it, right?

I also have some snake oil you may be interested in though...

[Farrar]

They spelled "Turdinator" wrong.

[Mark D]

Yeah, but it spins the air into a vortex! :Headspin:

Thats gotta be good for at least 5hp.

[Farrar]

I got +5 HP just from changing the oil & filter.

Stamped aluminum fan spinning at 35,000 RPM.:smokelot:

[Kerichbe]

I've seen better looking fan blades on a PC, they probably move more air too !:hysterical:

[Mark D]

Aside from the obvious flaws in this design, it seems like when you'd go to install the thing the hose clamp would be positioned right over the top of the fan. So as you tighten it down you'd crush and distort the plastic ring around the fan blade and either:

1. Grind the fan blade against the shroud and rubber boot sending plastic/rubber/metal shavings into your engine's air intake
2. Stop the fan from spinning completely, effectively adding a large blockage to your intake.

The secret is out... O damn... Long gone are the days of us pulling the wool over owners eyes and installing this sleek device in the pontoon.

I hate that many people will be buying this for their cars.

No worries... they can use some of the money they get from the Nigerian winnings!

Can I add this amazing device to my turbo car? I know I can add it to a non turbo car, but the ad doesn't clearly say if I can add to to a turbo car. Would I have so much power I couldn't stop the car?

I think you know the answer to that :)

But on a similar vein, what if I have a bifurcated inlet hose, like Nick R has on his LS1; then I could have two of these operating together. I need to check the specs on my auto box to make sure it can handle it.

[Soundkillr]

...I do know the answer to that. I'm ordering two of these as we speak, and running them in series. I'm going to have to upgrade the brakes, but no big deal. I just hope the control arms can handle the wheel stands I have planned for this car after this amazing upgrade.

You're probably going to need a set of wheelie (weenie) bars :hysterical:

[Dangermouse]

As you know, any performance upgrade is truly proven with a dyno test, so here you are. It's in Aussie metric units but it gets the point across about what you get for your money

(anyone else think that Moog looks like Sean??)

[Michael]

Do these superchargers overcome atmospheric pressure? no

Do they get in the way of the intake airflow? Yes....meaning unless they over atmosphere pressure, they would hurt your peak HP.

Now let's talk about that little flimsy fan spinning on a brushlesss motor. Most fans I deal with are made from ultra strong polycarbonate and balanced. This one looks like it was made from a soda can and I wouldn't want to be around it without a shroud, but putting it right next to my intake while the engine is at WOT seems like a safe place.

[ALEXAKOS]

Those leaf blowers are awesome on the hood~!!

Hmmm.... Looks DMCH has modified their Stage 3 offering :wink:
