Probably a subsonic frequency...so yes...and it will also serve as an elephant repellant to boot!

ha...

on a more serious note...its probably an annoying one...

 

The world is a vicious cycle. I saw on the discovery channel that moths drink bear ****. Moths are being eaten by the salmon that swim upstream. Salmon are caught by the bears. Therefore, bears have superpowers in their pee.

Bears sleep in trees and can climb up ladders. Also, they are intelligent to open a door ****. A black female bear can smell about 8 times more sensitive than a blood hound. But, they are also the ones that defend their cubs from animals trying to eat their young.

 

HAHA!!! That's extremely funny to me mainly because I know shazbot in "real life". And you guys thought this thread was 'Off-Topic' before...

Richard: any updates on the patents?

 

this project seems to have died ........ ???????

 

What's really sad is when a black cub dies from being eaten by a hungry grizzly bear.

 

Just another reason they are on the "Threat Down"

 

Bears aren't just on the Threatdown list... they're number ONE! Numero Uno.

 

And this whole time I thought I was threat numero uno...bah!

 

Sorry chief, bears have their superpower pee.

 

Any news on the superchager? Is it still in development? Its been a while since we have heard from RP. Is Richard on vacation or just very busy? Just a few words from Richard would be nice.

 

Me thinks thou prostest too much...

beginning to doubt this is going to happen in the time frame of use for me. If this thing could be mass produced it could save the 8. We sure are loosing the performance war that is going on. Mainly hp. The rest of the car is absoulutly perfect for me. For me all I would need is 50 more to the wheel hp(total 250 to the wheels). Dont want turbo--my own reasons.
Mazda needs to wake up or the 8 is going to get left in the dust. Save the 8 Richard--save the 8!!!

I'm with you OD - not looking for big numbers, and I don't want a turbo either.

 

phew.....finally finished reading the thread.....so....in the end...its not finished yet......sad

 

LOL- RP should update the FIRST post so nobody else does that...

 

I think RP is hanging out with the bears... or in a panda suit eating bamboo.

 

Those who work in a shop will like this:
click me, I'm super charged

 

Hey all. Sorry, I missed this in the LONG thread. What type of reliablity would the AFSC offer?

 

LOL - that is awesome

 

(Someone please correct me if anything here is incorrect.)
Reliability ought to be fine, but since it isn't finished so no one knows for sure.

The supercharger is done and installed in his (Richard's) car and he has been running fine.

What's taking so long is engine management. I believe all the solutions out now cost +$1000 and don't work that well. And I believe RP hated working with them.

Part of what's taking so long is Richards efforts to keep the kit relatively cheap.

You can get Turbocharged now for ~$10,000 for the kit + install + tune

Soon-ish you ought be able to get super charged (I think Petite said ~$7000 + install + tune)

I believe RP is trying to keep the price a bit lower.

 

Pettits is starting at $ 4,995....Stage 2

 

+ $1500 for EMS = $6500

 

+ gauges, install, tuning...

 

Actually every engine management system is more than capable of working just fine for the application. None of them "don't work that well". That wasn't the problem and it's not my place to get into it here. Price is a concern though as keeping it cheap has always been a goal. For some people that isn't a concern though as many already have an Int-X or emanage.
