The only cars that are running around with my SC on them are V8 style with the big unit. I posted that blower before but maybe not on a car. I'll post the engine again now and look for some auto installs. I bought a scanner so I guess I could hook it up and scan some in.

Now what you really want is coming soon. I will be installing one in my own 8 shortly. That blower is about to be assembled maybe even today. for sure this week. We have a new test bench about to be assembled, the new motor is to be here this week. It has a vari drive that will help us a lot during testing. It is 20 hp with an output speed of 5000 to 11000.

So the first order of buisness is to build a bench to hold and drive things. Then mount the test instrements. This setup will allow endurance testing to be done without puting it in a car. Nothing beats actual in the car testing of course but here is the difference between me and the others. I have to develop the compressor also, not just the kit.

To me the kit and car come as the easy part. Let me get the hard part over with. If you think about it I'm not doing that bad. I've only been working on this design for less then a year. I know to you it seems that it is taking forever but it is really quick.

It should have a car fitting in the next month to six weeks. As soon as I can get a mock up I'll feed the sharks with some pictures. That seems to work, it gave Hymee a break for awhile. Say, he's about due for some cage rattling isn't he??
His car is always clean too. Ihatethebastard. :p

Now this is GTG. I was having a bad day today and this just made me feel 200% better. Mr Paul I thank you. Seeing as how I'm not going anywhere for a while I guess I'll grab a snickers, sit back, and wait for those pics and some results. Again Mr. Paul you have no idea of how much this has made my day. Thank you.

Axial is more like a rim job whereas twin screw sounds like 2 **** stars.

I have my fingers on two cars right now, we shall see which one comes through.

As to selling in Oz, I feel that you guys down under are such a band of brothers that one of you would have to pissed at Hymee to buy from someone outside your island.

Just from interacting and reading your jabs and nit picking with each other I don't think an outsider has a chance. I have become quite freindly with Hymee over the last many months and would almost feel guilty if I sold a blower there. Notice I said ALMOST, so don't rule it out.
Hymee and I are going to have a few drinks together in a couple of months and if something comes from that (other than hangovers) we will let you know.
Hymee is curently selling the **** out of my shifters down there. Yet I doubt that would be the case if he were making a competetive product.

My personal philosiphy on buisness is that I fight like hell to get the sale but once the sale is made it is to everyones advantage to help see to it that competetors sale was satasfactory. That means it is to no ones advantage for me not to help out aftersales for the other guy. So if Hymee has a problem with his stuff here in the states I will be happpy to help out.

I'm not going out and saying his junk is better then my high tech beautifull turbine technology and workmanship. Just to give him some help with all the failures.

Here's one for you yarumswiggingbastard.

Like a song by Normie Rowe says says "It aint necessarily so "while we have a obvious loyalty to a home made product there is plenty of members that have bought swaybars from racing beat , brake pads and exhaust systems from other well known brands .Japanese , American etc

We all admire and respect the HYMSTER/Dr phil for what they have done and doing for our RX8 here in Australia however id say most of us would consider every product on its own merrits .

The old Australian adage of giving everyone a fair go would apply.

Also dont forget there are a lot of potential customers who have never heard of Hymee Enhanced products who dont frequent the forum but drive RX8'S

cheers

What is all that dirty, dirty talk about? How can anything be more sensuous sounding then Axial Flow. It has such romance, so smooth, it flows from the tounge almost Itailian like. :D

While Twin Screw does infact sound like a porno show. They both have there place but some of us need to raise our class out of the 42nd St. pit.
I'll be the first to admit that they might reconize my face on 42nd but not in later life. I just used up all my credit down there and they will not renew my visa. :o

Thus I became the smooth, clean, craby old man that I am.
Dirty mouth and dirty fingernails are a thing of the past, just like positive displacment blowers. :p

Michael, it's all tounge in cheek. Jest. I just want in on some of the fun you Aussies have with each other. :D Life is to short to allow commerce to interfere with humor and fun. Don't beat your head against the wall when you could be enjoying yourself, for the sake of a buck.

That's probably why all my bucks have left me. But I have the old storys, the pictures and the tee shirts.

So what your saying Michael, is that you are where Rotarygod is aspiring to be.

Swoop, I think you have the idea. I might have picked different examples but they would repesent the same faction.

I don't know what book you can look it up in but someone else must know the reference manual to find.
