i was reading about Gimlet's electric super charger, and since his diesel is fuel injected, would it work on my 700 EFI?

I went to the e-ram site but i havent found anything for atvs....or for micro use..because im sure the sensor would have to pretty small to fit into the throttle box on the handle bars to know when to kick in....is this true? or would one for a car work?


If did this supercharger, would i still see performance with stock exhaust and clutch?


open for any suggestions

I think this e-ram is a scam ... look it up around the internet (google) ... i've been in this discussion before ... that small of a electric motor can't boost the air flow, it doesn't draw enought amps.

 

I think those are bilge blowers and are just a restriction!!!

ok, thats what i was kinda thinking........and for 300 buck....i would rather do some other mods like a clutch and run dual exhaust ahaha

 

If you think of all the trouble and expense people go to to get a little extra air into their motors with K&N filters, filter box modifications and even inlet port grinding doesn't it stand to reason that removing the inlet vacuum and actually producing some positive pressure, no matter how little is bound to be more effective.

On your EFI it would probably be a lot more effective than it is on my diesel. You have an air sensor in the inlet manifold I believe, so your mixture would be automatically increased to compensate for the extra air. It would be just like the automatic compensation for different air pressures at different altitudes.

As the unit is designed with enough air throughput to supply and large car engine it is more than capable of supplying enough air for the relatively small engines used in quads

To increase the speed my slow diesel quad can reach from 17mph to 22mph whilst pulling away on a 10% incline it must have had some positive effect on the power.

If you have any doubts about whether it will give an increase in power you could get it Dyno tested and if there wasn't any increase you can return the unit within 30days and get a refund + 50% of the Dyno test fee.

Try e-mailing them and you will find that they are very helpful, and to me at least, they seem very genuine.

 

seems they need some more work
