can't comment at this moment, cos i've just installed air charger and other poison these 2 days.

 

agreed, usually stock will be the best, getting poison will always waste money./

comlpete waste of time...if this product really works all the performance garages would already have closed down...and whenever one mods the intake system to allow more air(air filters excluded) u'll need to have proper retuning of your AFR....if not u'll risk running lean...and that thing poses a restriction @ high RPMS....

Got it, however just curious what serve the purpose? I got a frd install this charger from someone specially make from MCS. Quite easily to install on it from what i see. Test drove my frd mz3, just feel the gear changes quite fast and much smoothness. Don't feel any power up at all. Wonder long run will cause any side effects?? [lipsrsealed]

Pros: easy to install, LTA compliant, maybe helps in the low end just after moving off, easy to find/quite a few ppl selling, doesn't require tuning.

 

Cons: expensive, add weight, sap electrical power/increase load, restrict airflow at high rpm, extra complicity/things to go wrong.

if jam acts as an inlet restrictor, and negligible power gain.

 

If someone using the air charger can plug in a boost gauge and show that it is making any useful/positive pressure,

i'd humbly retract the above statements. smile.gif

 

Don't waste time. Get a real air charger sly.giflipsrsealed.gif
