Elliot Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 There was a discussion before on the future of engines, including forced induction. Found this on e-bay, which has a Supercharged Nitro engine.... ebay link Wonder if it is any good. :=8-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 I believe the consensus to be that thoose rb inovations chargers hardly do any thing, they will not increase performance that much. tbh there a complete rip off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samari Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Forced induction is impossible for nitro engines as the exhaust port is open at the same time as the injection port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot Posted April 3, 2005 Author Share Posted April 3, 2005 The Gospel according to Samari, 8:32 (AV).....tee hee I guess the two ports must have different timings, otherwise the exhaust gasses would just get sucked back in. There has to be a vacuum, otherwise no fuel/air would get sucked in, and for there to be a vacuum, the exhaust port must be closed. (or have I got it wrong again?)

Samari Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 I'm pretty sure that the air being forced out of the pipe causes back pressure which pulls the fuel in while the exhuast port is still open. This may be wrong but I can assure you that superchargers do not work. Just type it into any RC forum and you'll find threads saying the same thing.

Duff Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 there was a big topic on this ages ago and we all desigided there a load of tosh and that they would not work for the reason that samari has alredy said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 best things you can do to the motor are tuned exhaust pipe, better air filter, boost Bottle kit, boost chinber kit and some good fuel will make a diffrence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
300ZXZ31 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 i wish someone on hear would get an old engine that they dont want and try these things out just to settle it once and for all. just be cool do see what happened. im not saying that i beleivce it would work but it would just be cool to see the results as i said.
