Electric Super Charger

Hey folks,
Just got back in to Homestead Florida the meet was great had fun & a good time with good company I would also like to thank the club for paying for the before snack/dinner yesterday.

I further wanted thank the club for the nomination for my commute to the meet even for a step child (sedan) .https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif


I guess I need to show up more often anyway the insane ESC supercharger is running great after so much R&D I hope all who saw the car liked how it had turned out.
I knew many folks were skeptical on this type of set up I have been told so many times on so many different performance forums that electric super chargers are bogus and does not work, one was no name (A.K.A. Mr.pres (lol)) but I took him on for a test run I hope he enjoyed the ride & would further comment here if it does work after all.

Remember folks this only bolted on with no fuel management or ecu tuning so that is the next mod (cannot wait) but it has to come after I replace my original clutch which is still barley hanging on for life at 48,000 miles on my 2004.5 sedan.
I will post the person who makes the ESC when I clear it with Todd if it is ok to do so.

I cannot wait for the next meet & 650 miles round trip but a club with members all you ("terrific company") that share my passion for the (G's) who is counting the miles

email me for further info

I think we should caravan to Bradenton Motorsports Park when we have our Lokey meet. The track is well prepped and about a 45 minute drive from Lokey.

It was nice to meet you Linton. The electric sc sure is different and got a lot of attention. I guess the power advantages outweigh (literally) the added weight of the batteries and all the electrical gear. Keep up the R&D on it.

Also, thanks for talking to me about the Eibach springs and Stillen bars on your sedan. You gave me something to think about.

It has been a year since I have went out but it is definitely a good time on a budget.

It was nice meeting you too, Linton. I have to admit, I too, was a disbeliever of the electric supercharger, but when I got back home, I did do some reading on it and its a very interesting concept. Glad to see we have F/I pioneers like you in our club. Good luck with the R&D on the thomas knight supercharger. Also, you totally had me fooled with the bass box in the trunk. I had no idea there were batteries hidden in there.

Yeah the speaker box was a great idea.

I would hope the OEMs build this in as an option on day taking advantage of the battery systems built into the chasis and reclaim electricity during the breaking phase.

I can't wait to see your G run. I hope you come up to Clearwater in March.

Additional thanks from me for the tour you gave me. You must get tired of explaining the same thing every time... but I appreciated it.
