Reep,

Yup, I remember now. I have seen aftermarket non-shunt regulators. There's even one out there with a built in battery charger. It wasn't even all that expensive. It only comes in chrome though, or I might just have one.

Lame, Sure he hasn't posted back yet, you guys gave him how long to get back to your questions before ripping in to him. Granted you all have good points to possible and probable pitfalls. But hell, thats where innovation comes in.
And as for the filter, some people want maximum fun from their toys. Hey its just a toy. If he fries the motor in 5000 miles from a rock its his deal.
threads like this are making me consider not reading anything that hasn't been written by buckinfubba.

You guys w fuell injection need this! put a shraeder tire valve on the gas tank & pump it up to reduce load on the fuel pump, reducing draw on the electrical system to get the optimum power!

Fullpower. I took the P-test, but failed. The dyno operator said he found traces of steroids in the exhaust, thus nullifying the 185 hp dyno run. Then he said something about it not being fair to non steroid using engines and suspended me for three races.

Aesquire... I don't believe it... you're a friggin GENIUS! wait... wait... there's more... We could make the SEAT the pump!!!

Oconnor - You seem to have a point... fine...

Stevie...

Put the fan right on top of the velocity stack (just fabricate an extension for the top so you retain the velocity nipple) so you can at LEAST use a filter...

I also vote that you run a small generator off the fan engine to regenerate the electricity the fan used so you get back the power the fan took from the motor.

Alright, that's my 2c.

Well we just added a Nitro kit now and some dry ice in the storage compartment to keep things cool.
We have also added straps to the bars for your wrists to be locked into because of the power increase.

I would also like to say that $50 from each sale will go to the Bush re-election campaign!

We at Remmurd will keep you informed.


lol

Oconnor.... We are doing this because we have been through this exact discussion in great detail (with the heavy math to prove it) within the last year. What was described can't work, plain and simple. It is possible to create an electrically powered super charger, and it could work, but it won't look anything like what was described / posted and it won't be cheap and easy.

If somebody is sincere and wants to work, they could not come to a better place to get more support (engineering, tuning, fabrication, marketing, logo creation, etc) then they could ever dream of.

But if you come here doing bad math or selling snake oil, you wont get much traction at all.

Compare how we talk about the Drummer (glowingly) compared to the Fitch Fuel Catalyst (you thought we were mean on THIS thread...). The difference ain't Brian (though we love him), the difference is that the drummer works.

It's am engineering thing... knock down drag out arguments, eventually somebody is proved right or the solution is sufficiently evolved to be functional (or just taken out back and shot), and everyone is best buds again.

Well I'm not buying one until you also pledge £50 to the Tony Blear un-election campaign as well (and let David Blindgit, sorry Blunkett test ride it at Cadwell Park!)

Why not do away with the heavy exhaust system altogether and just have short exhaust stubs pointing straight into the throttle body......Hmmm perpetual motion

Now we are starting to think Matt my friend.


Oh and thanks for the Key Ring.......its helping to strap down the fan as we speak.

Now I am far from the smartest guy here, or anywhere else for that matter but

and this is just my opinion and its worth squat really.

But I am all for invention it is creativity that makes all thisa good stuffa go rounda (italian accent)
I know I said nothing about the drummer, except that we were working on something. When we were ready we came to everyone with dynos and info and all that good stuff. You know proof in the pudding.

I don't understand that is your serious about coming up with something why you would share it while its half assed. Your just setting your self up to get stomped on.

thats just my opinion......don't make claims that can't be verified rather quickly.

ok I have ended the bubba business class 101

OK that is quite enough BS. stevie J and i will have a dyno duel. we shall pit the Remmurd intake boost system head to head against my patent pending Post-Turbo Exhaust System Technology (P-TEST). both will be installed after base line testing on a stock XB test mule. we will be conducting the dyno shoot out at a top secret location on 1st April 2004. results will be posted here. get your P-TEST results here.

sorry steve if you took that wrong. I wasn't saying anything about what you are working on, but you are setting yourself up for this since your Idea is not done.

and if I am wrong send us the dyno's and back up your theory.

you say lol....well thats such a typical response when the facts are not able to be furnished.

thats all I was saying. hell I hope it works but no one is gonna believe it til you have results and by then because of this they will have their opinion made up.

as far as what we did with the pipe. seems to have been a good business plan.

Ok,
Everyone that hasn't caught on that he's yanking your chain, raise your hands.

Sheesh guys, what does "remmurd" spell in the mirror?

Nitro and dry ice? Straps for your wrists?

You forgot to mention the the reusable solid rocket booster that adds 10,000 ft/lbs of thrust for twenty seconds (caution-use only in the straights!)

Where do I buy one of dem new fangled remmurd technologiez thing-a-ma-bobs?

157 BHP is just to good to be true.

Timbo - the solid rocket boosters, is that available for a XB9 as well as the 12?
Can you give me details on how it hooks up?

Thanks,
Phil

oh yeah, and that guy selling ocean front property in Arizona, gimme a holler also.

Austin,
Glad you asked...at this time we are only considering the 9R for this application. The 12R would be just a tad bit over the top of our comfort zone. We also envision this as being a "right back at ya" booster for all the 9R guys being ragged on by the 12R guys who have a little more HP.

Keep in mind, we are still in the development stages of this new and exciting performance enhancement, the "Dremmur 5R5 SRB".

For your approval, I humbly submit the following prototype drawings...





And this spy photo of a prototype in actual application. Notice, the vehicle is strapped and ready for test firing.



All tests indicate this will be a SMASHING success.

Stot,
The mounts are rigid. However the nozzle is adjustable to offer on the fly vectored thrust (OTFVT technology, pat. pend.). But keep in mind, once the booster is lit, it cannot be shut off! No guts no glory!


Spidey,
We learned the hard way. One of our test pilots got a really bad blister on his inner thigh when one was fitted with the old style O-rings.

So, the bottom line is... I reverse wire the stock fan and VIOLA, I have a Remmurd forced air induction Unit? I kinda woulda thought that might've worked, but...

LOL, it ranks right up there with the dihydrogen monoxide (water) scare that Aliso Viejo, Ca. dealt with recently.

Sparky's idea about reversing the wires on the stock fan should work. I switched the polarity on my blast horn, now it sucks instead of blows. It's like hitting the nitrous button! No dyno results, however. Just as Timbo"s booster would not help RWHP.

Dick
Note: If your horn does not face forward as on the Blast you must re-mount the horn. YMMV, but perhaps suck beats blow.

I like your idea.......my engineers could make this work.

I think the dyno run shoot out with your project and ours would be a good idea, then add yours to ours and see what happens.


We at Remmurd cant wait.

Haha
