Anyone ever seen this in action before? I'm wondering how well it actually works.

ive heard of that before. i think the intercooler cooler is a good idea, but some of the other stuff they make seems a little ify. fuel should be a certain temperature (i dont remember what) to get optimal burn, so that fuel cooler could be detrimental to power, and anything in the intake tract can cause a loss of flow, so at higher rpm, it could hurt power as well. and a CO2 purge? thats rice. but if youre running a turbo, id love that intercooler bar.

 

they tested on of those types of things in an issue of MuscleMustang and got some good numbers with it. but they didnt test the long term effects so who knowswhat will happen after several months or years of use

 

i wouldnt invest in it unless you're boosted, but thats just me.

 

i was reading their website, and it bragged about the intake temp drops they got, but not the power. then it showed where they did a dyno test on a civic with a base hp of 110, and saw a 9% increase, but im thinking that on a b-series, that bulb in the intake would impede the airflow at high rpms a lot. and im willing to bet that the 9% was at the bottom of the rpm range. it wouldnt surprise me to see a loss at the upper ranges on the sohc they tested.
