So, get the unit yet, BlueCollar?

Yes, Mugs came and installed the unit last week. Give me a few more weeks to get a bit more meaningful mileage before I comment.

Should be interesting to see what happens next.

POST DECENT PICS OF THE DEVICE AND THE INSTALLATION.

Minimum 3000x2600 resolution.

You'll need to host it somewhere for others to download tho... myBB won't be able to host that size image.

I will put a full article with hi-rez images on Greencars. Patience people.

Good stuff!

Thanks!

*boingboingBUMP*

any news on this?

 

[BCO]

Will be writing an article for greencars soon.

Damn, how long can it take to see whether a piece of plastic works. It either does (noticeably) or it doesn't.

2 Tanks for fuel should be enough to provide meaningful data.

I'm nearly done with a 5000km test.

Damn, I don't even Pro-long did a test like that.

Come on, the combined development budget of BMW/VW/Merc/Toyota/Mitsi etc have not figures this out?

I suspect anyone who fits this subconsciously drives with a lighter right foot to "see" the difference.

And the results are...

I read a few years ago these guys were take to task by the Australian advertising ombudsman.

Makes you think

EDIT:

Also notice this deal is to install it before the air filter???????

How's that help? Where's the flow "ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE'S AIR FITLER SYSTEM.IT CREATES A WHIRLPOOL AIR FLOW, RESULTING IN IMPROVED COMBUSTION"

Nice spelling in the ad too. Any whirlpool effect is lost in the air box, no?

At the very least at least the Ozzy guys were installing it after the filter

Any whirlpool effect is lost in the air box, no?

The theory says that the whirlpool effect will cause more air to enter the air filter. That means that, yes, the whirlpool effect is lost, but there is already more air and thus a higher pressure at the air inlet. This should have a little bit of performance gain, but I'm quite sure the gain will be negligible.

That doesn't make sense. Air filters are designed so that the engine's not starved of air even funning full-throttle at max rpm. Supplying more air cannot make a difference - at a given rpm, each cylinder will take in a precise volume of air.

Only way to have more air in each cylinder is to use a super/turbocharger.
