It is an AXIAL FLOW SUPERCHARGER

We are about to market a new supercharger. This is of the axial flow type. Similar to aircraft jet engines or gas turbines. While very complex to engineer and produce it is worth it. It is smaller, lighter and more efficent than any othr form of compression. The current unit is 5 inches by 8.5 inches and 10 lbs.

There is no need for an intercooler on street installations. The first kits will be for Honda. Next we want an upscale car. The Rx-8 looks like a good car. We would love to have one for a company car. But is there enough market to warrent the engineering of a kit?? With the probable volume and complexity the package will run about 3500 to 3700.

Will owners buy such a product? Lets talk about what you want. I am having trouble getting pictures in here. They are available just have to work it out.
You may have to e mail me for them until I figure it out.

what would be the specs? for $3500-3700 you would be in the price range of the comptech supercharger. would your axial flow supercharge provide more boost?

If the part can be proven reliable and effective, there definitely will be a market.

i'm definitely interested... posting some dyno charts would be a good promotion of your product. I saw the pics of the supercharger on the rx-8 forum, please give us more information on how much performance increase we should expect with your product.

rezurex,

First of all, thanks for your PM. At this time, there is no kit for the CL. I have to work on finding if a CL kit a feasible.

Nashua.

AQUI NO!

nashua, are you and paul the same person. read all the info at the rx8 site and everything sounds good.

no, i am not paul... but i may have interest to work with paul to see if we can have a CL kit.

I have my doubts about this S/C. Its size doesn't lend itself to flow enough air like CompTech S/C does. Also, what kind of ECU controller is this S/C going to use? Looking at the pictures on the thread provided, I don't think it would be very reliable - too many moving parts. CompTech's S/C is guarantied to last 80k-100k miles.

There is always a market for something that is better than what is already out there. 2 things to keep in mind:

#1 - Will the performance gains be higher the CT

#2 - Price

If the two are equal, as far as gains, the price needs to be cheaper. CT is proven.

Just my 2 cents.

I look forward to seeing a dyno.
