"All production vehicles come from the factory with room for improvement. Insurance companies force the manufacturers to lower the power output by 20% to create a buffer to restrict the components from operating at their full potential. This is to ensure that those components will not fail no matter how hard the driver tries. The way they accomplish this buffer is by changing many settings in the computer that control how much fuel the vehicle consumes, and the timing of the ignition. The sensor that reads some of this information is called the MAF (mass-air-flow). Instead of voiding your warranty by cracking the car's computer and manually changing those settings, the patented Eco-Block simply tricks the MAF sensor to read a more appropriate mix that safely unlocks 8% of your vehicle's restricted potential."
I work at a Toyota dealer and I'm pretty sure if we had a car with issues show up with one of these it wouldn't be covered. Subaru is super strict and picky about what they cover so I can't see them covering it either
I questioned them on their instagram and I'm half expecting my comment to be deleted and to find that I've been blocked
I have that same one (branded Craftsman), that was my Father's. It's at least 60 years old, and has tested dozens of cars. Only thing that has failed was the o-ring, and I buggered that up when I was much younger. Replacement was cheap.
Goys, are we still sending people to WitchHunter Performance for injector cleaning and flow testing service or is there another vendor du jour?
Damn son! Injectors were mailed out the afternoon of the 21st and they arrived this morning on the 28th, that's with a weekend and a national holiday in the middle. These guys don't screw around with turn-around times.
Stock NB injectors BTW. I forgot to ask them to be tested at 60psi so the results came in the default 43.5, but oh well. I'm glad they are now within 0.8%
I watched the first 6 or 8 episodes last night. I find them to be some of the funniest stuff I have seen in years.
Man, what a hell of a lot of work. Seems to me they could have gutted the shell, built a tube frame and eliminated a lot of cutting and welding.
But it's going to be one hell of a cool car when they are done.
