Power Launcher (DIY)

[L9Turbo]

Anyone tried/wanna try this? Maybe get a PC power fan and fix it at the intake. But not smooth enuff. Where to get ball bearing fans? Project feastable?

Sounds like SURBO or other Air Spinning devices to me.. :blink: which we had been discussed lately...

or perhaps, wat u mean is somekind like Electric Supercharger..?? :o

Mind to explain more 'bout it?

 

[L9Turbo]

Yeah... something like that. Either powered or free turning ones. Its so expensive to buy it from the shops. Thinking of DIY-ing it. Even it fails.. it wunt hurt so much.

last time i put a fan on top of the carb, if will turn at 2k rpm, but i dun feel any differenceler....

mayb do it again n see....

 

[ksgoh]

maybe can try add extra fan at radiator since there still have some spaces......for wira...

 

[xtorm]

hmmm, i bought a cdr box which can fit 25 pieces of cdr, cut the top n bottom to fit the fan n the carbie.

it feels easier to get high speed, i can go al the way to 130km smoother then b4...

geting 110km is alot easier now, some time even without me noticing it....

but i'm now runing without flter, mayb tat is the case?

Unless your fan is super duper fast and can adapt to the incoming turbulance your fan will end restricting and end up starving your intake and boom!!!
