someone asked if anyone has tried to email him on this....I did it about a month ago, and still have gotten no response. Also--I find this a little funny, don't you?
a quote from his letter above:
"2.) I am still working on the supercharger, although, as time
permitts, with the extreme weather we have had up here in north east
PA - another 20" of snow hit us yesterday. The Bahamas are looking
pretty darn nice right about now!"
has ANYONE looked at the photos on the link that was listed in the same post as his letter?? The company is in WYOMING. He has been telling us all this time that he owns this company, that it's HIS company, yet it is a thousand miles from where he is?? this just doesn't add up...also--I seem to recall at the beginning of this thread somewhere that Frank told us that this is NOT your typical "let's try it and hope it works" project, and that he had "off the shelf" capability! I will hafta check on that one, but I am pretty sure he told us he has these units already built and it was just a matter of developing the system in the car. Since he had the BDT units, and he has the rx7 himself, what would he need all that "research funding" for? I know that there would obviously be some cost, but we were led to believe it was MUCH less than that....

I just like looking at Phu5ion's avitar.
I was like most of you and very excited about this thread when it started. but about 3 weeks later when he never gave any updates I know it was BS. I did my own research on the Tesla disk. it seems easy and simple, but I don't think it is aplicable for this aplication.
Now then. lock the thread and then delete it. so as not to destroy the hopes of any other poor souls.

He is working on the plugs to make it out of Carbon Fiber
Really? I heard he was in the mountains mining some unobtanium because it will be stronger and lighter than CF.
________
boost creep to 22psi by 3,500rpm on 91 octane un tuned, no problem I have 8.5:1 cr rotors so there was zero detonantion
