As for bigger maf piping. May help. May not. Easy breezy to test. Either on dyno or with a magnehelic type accurate vacuum gauge.

I know it is incredibly addicting. As soon as i installed it i went from 28 US MPG to 24 US MPG for 4 tanks because of all the 0-60 and dyno time.

This tank was down quite a bit because of no dyno time or video runs flat out

Charger was installed on June 24th.

@Toma i have my old intake we could hack up to test actually if your interested, it would still draw air from out side the engine bay and piping is same as factory diameter.

How it weight ? ( Lighter - heavier )

What is the difference ? Acid - Lithium

I think its one 24V battery pack and another smaller 12V battery to start the car. they are both mounted together in the factory location. (You can see the line in the middle. indicating there are two batteries, also the extra posts.)

Incorrect.

From the OP:
Quote:
The system consists of the cold side of a turbo, high power and high quality brushless motor controller and AGM battery charger and two compact SLA 12 volt batteries.

The system removes the standard FRS battery and replaces it with 3 compact batteries. Two wired in series designed to dump charge to the DC motor attached to the turbo and One separate battery to start the car and run the various electrical systems.

Two batteries power the e-charger, one helps start the car.

Lithium is too volitile for a engine bay and requires a more advanced charging algorithm in the controller. Its possible but the engine bay is not the best place for these types of batteries.

The batteries which i have are lead acid and they are virtually the same weight as stock.

There are 3 batteries TOTAL - (2) wired together for 24v and (1) to run the cars normal electrical systems/start the car.

Thanks,
