Now I know a lot of them you see on EBay is garbage but this one actually produces 1 psi air pressure. I know this is nothing what you guys are getting but for $350 dollars and maybe some jetting I could be getting 10 to 25 more HP with this mod hooked directly up to stock intake and used only for racing or climbing. Your comments please.

If you think that desk fan can make 1 psi boost at 10,400 engine rpm your crazy don't waste the time or effort.

10400/4= 2600 litres of used air. This is supposed to put out 800 cfm it would take at least 10 liters to fill a square foot I would think so the cfm used by the rx-1 would be around 260 cfm it just might be able too on such a small engine. Does anyone know how many liters go into a square foot of volume?

Check out the demo on their site the thing flys on it own if it is let go.

I do believe 9.29 litres will go into 1 foot cubed.
800 x 9.29 = 7432 litres

7432 / 2600 = 2.8 times the amount of air the rx-1 will use. It might work.

1 liter engine pumps 10,400 liters of air per minute at 10,400 rpm.

I don't think that little fan can do that even if it does fly.

I dont think so and correct me if I am wrong but it is a four stroke so you have to divide the 10400 by 4 = 2600 litres used air.

 

[Ted Jannetty]

My bad divide by 2 not 4. 5200 liters of air.

Each full 4 stroke cycle takes 2 revolutions of the crank.

Ok so 7432L / 5200L = 1.429 more air than it can use it would make a difference I would think. Too bad it would cost so damn much to find out.

he he he!!!!! it will work just fine if ya don't use to long of an extention cord!!!!!

 

[Sled Dog]

Ok that's it I am ordering it just to show you all are wrong come race day lets dance.













Just kidding!

Can the battery put out enough power to make it work even for a short time.791 watts at 59 amps is a lot of power on a sled.

They say they hooked one up to a motorcycle but needed to install a little fuel pump to deliver the extra amount of fuel required gravity feed wasnt cutting it.

Wow, it doesn't look like the wires included with that would carry 57 amps at 12 volts???

My math earlier was out to lunch on the cfm to litres. One cubic foot holds 28.31 litres. 800 cfm equates to 22,653 litres cubed. The engine can use at best 5200 litres cubed.
So 22653 L3 / 5200 L3 = 4.35 times more than the RX-1 can use. That tells me if this thing actually does what it says it would work and feed the engine all it could ever use at WOT. Which would mean substantial gains for under $500. You could only use it as a boost for racing when you are almost wide open throttle kick her in or for climbing. Wonder if jetting would be needed also. This is getting more interesting might have to try it.
