Magic Jet

[Hattee]

Unbelievable throwing away. Ever heard people still selling used iridium plugs at $30. Didn't you read one member here already offering halve price.

 

Let your story sounds more real - tell us where he threw. Maybe check with the kalang guni man.

cousin stays in yishun, near YJC. if u look hard enuff in the rubbish dump, u might still be able to find it. it's not a diamond and i think my cousin can live by his conscience to junk it...

 

on a more serious note and to put it really bluntly, he doesn't want anyone else to pay $$$ for a 'magic stone'. my cousin had 2 options: 1. put it in the storeroom and risk getting found out by his wife and getting nagged at for buying something which doesn't work OR 2. junk it and not pass it to someone else to spread the cost

 

btw, it doesn't take a genius to assess whether the claims of this gadget to real or not...

[Jamesgetz]

it's not 'super', it's 'magic'...

[Kytl68]

Didn't realise I could actually influence someone to buy it .... I don't remember mentioning it anywhere .... but if the device was not working, I find it really stupid (to put it bluntly) not to go for the money back option

 

I tried the Surbo earlier, some say it works while other said it did not ... so I tried for myself, found it did not work for me ... return it and did not waste a single cent except for the time spent to go get it installed and remove (at least my wife is happy and did not nag at me )

 

Nothing personal here ... but it's not difficult to understand that if someone has already spend $$$ on a device and you pass it on to someone to try .... HE DOES NOT NEED TO PAY ANYTHING .... except the time and afford to install it ... that is if he is not lazy enough to open the filter box and install it.

 

Enough said ... fellow MCFs .... be warn "THIS DEVICE MAY WORK FOR SOME AND NOT FOR OTHERS TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK .... OR MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MONEY BACK OPTION"

my feedback:

someone gave me an extra piece..tried on my car, a subaru TS, noticed that the engine (or induction?) sound is somewhat more muted. consumption isn't known cos just put in only.

as for 'power', dun really feel any improvement or worse..

where did u install the extra piece? Is it before or after the filter?

[Hattee]

Looks like you portraying your cousin as stupid guy who throw away things which he can sell or a very kindhearted soul. Both are hard to find looking at what you see in the classified.

 

Doesn't need a genius to understand your story. Gonna go to Yishun kalang guni liao.

its after the filter..before the air gets into the intake manifold..

[XLR8]

This magic jet is a piece of card like plastic with little holes with some metal thingy to let air pass thru. But wont the card be an obstruction instead? Only small holes to let air pass, hence wont be free flowing anymore.

[Gsl13]

How do u install it after the filter? I tried using the sticky tape but it kept falling off after a while.

[Greddy88]

i just place it there.. same problem, it dont stick. anyway, so long its in the box should be fine.. btw, i suggest u take out the tapes if they dont stick, in case it gets sucked into the intake then seow leow

[Hattee]

If you still have the original resonator box, lift up your air filter and look for the intake mouth joining the resonator box to the air passage from the outside.

 

If you might able to slide in 50%-75% of Magic Jet into the intake mouth without causing any air blockage. Most intake mouth is rectangular and its 2 corners can grip the Magic Jet pretty well while allowing substantial air rubbing on it.

yup, fr engineering point of view, this create airflow resistance n speed up velocity inside the airduct. operating principle is same as kitchen hood.

 

As for the following incomprehensible english fr their website

 

"The product is formulated by a special material, combined with titanium, aluminum, calcium carbide and the natural mine. The far ultra-red, weak current, electromagnetic wave produced by the system, with the ion functions, can make the acid materials the engine intakes become Super Micro-Grains, decomposes the water to have negative ion, activate the air, so the combustion effect is improved to be 100% burning, the power takes better effect as it can take."

 

1. there is no such thing as 100% conmbustion, oxygen concentration in air is only 1/3 nitrogen is 2/3. so that is fraudulent.

 

2. there is also no such thing as decompose water. water is formed 2 mols Hydrogen + 1 mols Oxygen. And tat exist in a beri stable stable. when u remove 2H2 from 02, u get an explosive mix. moreover, water I presume it is fr humidity exist in even smaller quantity in the air, unless it is raining or some 1 can injet some water into their airduct to find out.

 

[Greddy88]

thanks for yer help..but its not applicable to my car..the air filter is right in front of the manifold.. tried to use the box corner to 'grip' the magic jet, but this caused a loud induction noise somehow.

 

anyway, i just placed it there in the box without sticking or securing and it seem to work, just that it will move about in the box

[Hattee]

Wow people paying hundreds and hundreds of $$$ to reduce airflow resistance for more air.

 

You said "create airflow resistance n speed up velocity inside the airduct". Bery kood sargesson huh. Lye tat stop changing airfilter and our cars can become racers. Must run to the junkyard to find the most used airfilter liao.

[Kytl68]

I thought oxygen and even nitrogen supports combustion ... but what actually combust is the petrol sorry I am very poor in chemistry ... but I only remember you need spark, combustible material and air (or oxygen) to start a fire ... so maybe if they change the air properties ... they can have 100% combustion if they can burn all the fuel

[Apollo]

tell u what, give me clear n concise english with a detailed engineering analysis of what magic jet is and i'll give u a good reply.

 

yeah... u can take this reply as an insult. but heck, do i hv to entertain morons?

[Apollo]

nitrogen like carbon does not support combustion

 

http://www.ucc.ie/ucc/depts/chem/dolchem/h...em/elem007.html

 

but they r reactants to oxidation, and forms products from such process.

 

if 100% is achievable, manufacturers do not need to come up with complex process of Exhaust Gas Recirculation.

moreover, if u hv seen those products which extract H20 fr the humidity in the air, u will b aware tat it takes a long time to convert water moisture and also it take a whole lot more than just 15mm to do magic.

 

think abt it....
