hmm....it looks like some kind of torque adder....i've never heard of it though....i guess it could work...i mean...theoretically it could...the only thing i'd be worrying about is the recharge cycle...how much will it take away from the engine's power when it's recharging??

anyone have any other input?

Probably better to just spend that money on a s/c or turbo setup :nervous:

Holy shit, I saw that car on the highway recently, I tried to catch up to get a closer look and to spank it's ugly ass but then he exited right away. I saw that wing from like 1/2 mile back and it says Hondata accross the whole rear bumper. I had never seen it before at the track or otherwise and was wondering who would go to all that trouble.

I was going to email then an invite to the raceway this weekend but it's raining. I would love to check out the electrocharger thing and see how it stacks up. I have a distinct feeling it's a crock of shit. I have lived in San Antonio a long time and I have never seen that car at any of the shows or track events.
