Re: IVAC amplifier

I am still confused. So which one improve the torque figure and which one improve the smoothness? I have the IVAC and there appears to be improvements in both torque and smoothness. Can anyone tell me what difference would I expect if I am to spend on the coil booster?

I-VAC gives better torque more than coil booster. but when use Coil Booster with I-VAC.
The Coli booster give 1.5 times of I-VAC it self.
it is base on Volt age. Coil booster will boost 1.times from input Voltage to the Secondary coil of ignition coil unit

i.e.
Using 12v
12v x Primary Counter electromotive force (20 times of 12v) x secondly Counter electromotive force (100 times of Primary Counter electromotive force)

12v x 20 x 100=24000v

12v + coil booster (boost 1.5 times of secondly Counter electromotive force) =12x20x100x1.5=36000V at spark plug

12v + I-VAC= 12v boost to 20v (by I-VAC)x 20 x100 = 40000v at spark plug

12v + I-VAC + coil booster = 12v boost to 20v (by I-VAC) x 20 x 100 x 1.5( by coil booster)=60000v at spark plug

you can choice Combinations. What kind of gain you are looking for..
If coil booster is enough for you. it great.
But you are looking for more high Performance. then you can choice I-VAC self or Coil booster with I-VAC.

Coil booster give smoother than I-VAC. I-VAC give more bigly better torque than Coil booster self.
Coil booster + I-VAC Give most smoother and big better torque, it become most Excellent ignition system in world

please keep good condition with alternator and battery. Especially Battery.. it give you Excellent Performance always!!

Home of I-VAC >> S&R I-VAC
im sorry but i do not understand your english.anyway you have not answered the basic qns,just quote a lot of tech mambo jumbo.

Answer for "a)"
What is the Amplifier System, Power supply system, battery.alternator. when u Study about them..answer is there.
Battery is just for Charge and discharge. to all of Electronic parts. coz almost of Electronic parts are desin for 12V. nees supply 12 or Stabiliz 12v. when
alternator supply to hight volt or too low volt.. like a Capacitor. all of Electronic parts are take power from Battery or alternator.

exactly.so how can more volts = more torque or bhp?the only electrical involved in your engine is the volts sent to your sparkplug.and no spark plug can produce more sparks then it is designed for.



heres another qns..where does your ivac get the extra volt from?if it gets from the battery, you are saying for example it takes 10 volts from the battery to give it another 10v.isnt that taking from your left pocket and putting it in your right pocker?if it takes from the alternator, also the same.

even if you are correct and your device can produce more sparks, with the same amount of air and fuel combustion remains the same.anyway combustion needs fuel/air/and ignition.take a lighter,press the gas only and introduce a spark.no matter how big or small the spark is isnt the resulting combustion the same?how strong it is depends on how much fuel (gas) it is.

anyway Good Answer is Result.. I-VAC or Coil booster owner know they Pay Money for What. that is fact and answer

so wat result do you have?how many % improvements do you claim?do you have a dyno test done by an independant source (not by someone sponsored by you)?

this product is jus snakeoil.

Re: IVAC amplifier

Is it just me or does all this sound dodgy?
No offence to anyone but if increasing horsepower was so easy/cheap, then why isn't it used by all the big tuners around or even as common as an airfilter for example.

I'm just trying to raise awareness. The only Gagdet that might improve efficiency of your engine IMO is a voltage stabilizer although i haven't used one or this IVAC either.

anyway, in the end if it works for you then that's good enough

Cheap meh? I think it's about the standard price you pay for power gains.

IVAC and coil booster do not profess to give 100+++ bhp or 200+++ nm of torque. In fact, it's supposed to just make your car feel "lighter" and more "responsive". Both of which I do feel they do. No I have not done a dyno on these 2 mods, but from my experience (done dynos quite a few times on my own car), I would say they are worth about 10nm of torque and 5 bhp.

So around $800 for 10nm of torque and 5 bhp sounds about right. In fact, some would say it's on the expensive side.

Re: IVAC amplifier

snakeoil,

basically you can buck or boost voltage... or in more common terms step up or step down.... the voltage...

cheers!

Re: IVAC amplifier

I look at it in a more philosophical way. I remember the late 80s when I installed the 'cyclone' into the air cleaner box of my old carburetted Honda...I 'felt' the difference in performance. It maybe a real diff or just 'psychological' but I was thrilled and contented.
Same now. I felt the diff immediately after IVAC ( and it was a more substential feel compared to the Cyclone ). Therefore I agree with CBS and Mr Great White. No dyno or hard figures, but I am contented. I BELIEVE ( and still do ) that there is actual gain.

These products ( eg. IVAC, Sprintbooster, coil booster...) may have their critics ( as the way they work does not seem to make known logical scientific sense ) but in the end, it is the user with the sensitive butt that would be the final judge of the effects of these gadgets.
If that person (suckers to some ! ) feels the butt ( or psychological ) feel gain is worth the $$ he pays, then to him, whether the product is snakeoil or not is immaterial.
