Migueralliart,


You need to order one of these things and try it out. You will be amazed.

Whats the benefit of running two, verses a single larger compressor/motor? Efficiency?

The ability to get a higher torque motor that spins fast enough. Unfortunately, high torque motors aren't high enough RPM for the application. More motors allow you to add more torque to the system without dropping speed.

would it make any sense to add this electric SC to a JRSC kit? dual charger? would it even work?

I envision a hybrid intake pipe from the two chargers. It would require two custom pipes that join and has the ability to close off the ESC when the JRSC builds more boost than the ESC. That would leave lots of torque down low with gobs of power at the top.

I was thinking more along the lines of a sequential setup, such as, JRSC-->intercooler-->ESC---> engine. kinda like compressing already compressed air.

You would probably choke the ESC as it's running at a set RPM. I wouldn't suggest compounding it with another F/I but then again, what do I know?

I got everything running right and went for a quick spin. It's awesome, love the TQ!

I wish you lot would stop talking about awesome this thing is ...
because there is no sign of it being available to us in Australia just yet!

Someone throw us a a bone and give us an idea how long we may have to wait, pretty please

If you are willing to pay the money maybe you can try to work with a 3rd part to get it to you? *shrugs*

[1086]

I'd help you out but that is totally random coming from some guy on a forum... lol

Cheers but Rob has said there are a few issues he needs to sort before we can get it over here - it will happen but I am sure he is super busy with all the orders at the moment

Well if I can help let me know. We gear heads need to stick together.

Much appreciated guys

1. I doubt this is the first attempt to patent the idea in the U.S. as the concept had been around as long as the internal combustion engine itself. Of course patents are meaningless without the means ($$$) to protect them and the jurisdiction to validate them. This is a U.S. patent, see point 3.

2. Rob sells a kit of parts that the buyer can install as a system, not the fully assembled system itself. Much in the same way there are kits sold that can be used to produce other patented ideas (e.g. kit cars, gun parts, etc.)

3. Rob's in Canada.

Looks like that patent is no longer valid.

Rob should patent this system.
