That thing is officially dumb, one of my friends has been trying to tell me the benefits of it over the last few days, apparently he saw it at autojoy(rice factory) lol...

I read a write up about the 'TURBO ZET' a while back, and it basically took the piss out of them big time....to cut a long story short it went about its argument scientifically, and arrived at the following conclusion....

"So, to supply the current to drive an electric supercharger having the same airflow output as the most energy-efficient type currently available, it would take 1000 amps. To generate this much electrical power would require at least 8 heavy-duty alternators bolted to the engine. "

The reaction of technical experts...."extreme mirth!"

Read about it at......

Well for on thing it's not a plastic fan. The blades are all aluminum. Second it's not like a Turbozet at all. That is obviously two small computer like fans. It's not eRam either. Both the TurboZet and eRam have inefficient axial designs. eRam actually states that there are problems with that. It does however increase the intake of air on vehicles. With 800 CFM it can provide more air than most vechicles usually draw [ (RPMs x Displacement in Cu. In)/3456 ]. One day someone had to come out with a more efficient electric supercharger and we have. A great company that tried to pioneer this was TurboDyne. They had a 3psi supercharger, but it required 100 amps and never was readily available to the public. Now we've just made the design better and made it available. If you have any questions I've left many forms of contact on my profile.

I don't think this was every meant to be a replacement for a exhaust driven turbo. If you have that type of kit available then that would provide more boost of course. Not everyone has this option available and this is the main market we're catering to. People have purchased it though to minimize turbo lag.

$350 USD for the single and $650 for the twin. The decrease in the twin is because you don't need another harness. We have a couple of companies (Summit Racing and Jegs) that are trying to get these in sometime in the future (Summit's ETA December). They aren't cheap to make and our molding company is trying to drive up the prices on us as we speak.

    • You all are absolute legends! Thank you for helping me put this into context with your comparisons!
    • There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:    
    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
