Batman....

won't it be difficult to compare your results as your car is modded different then most...that is the ceramic coated rotors and your reduced heat soak and knock that your already reported?

If your car was on the dyno only a week ago, you would probably have a better idea of exactly what the peak power numbers were, down to one decimal place.

Dyno numbers evenly divisible by 5 raise my bullshit radar, especially when associated with boost levels that low, unless a single turbo was involved. You wouldn't mind posting the dyno sheet, would you?

 

So did I until I saved my engine one day on a lean spike of 13.7:1 A/F at 12 psi...... What you can't see in the picture is the tip of this "ButtPlug" cough TrailPlug product. They tip prevents the carbon buildup and blow-by from effecting the engine. If it were just a bolt I would save myself the face and keep it to myself.

Thanks,

Steven.

 

No, no problem. I get it scanned in the A.M. and have it posted on here tomorrow. My numbers were given off the top of my head, as I don't have the sheet in front of me.

I've also got some pics of my car on the mustang dyno if you would like those as well....

Thanks,

Steven

 

Please stop my dear good fellow ... I falling out of my chair rolling on the floor laughing.

The term "butt plug" is rightfully my trademark. Please refer to the first page. I intend to enforce this trademark up the orifices of those using them w/o my permission.

 

I'm just curious as to how the rotary engine (The 13BREW in this case), has been around so long, and gone through so much trial and error, been considered one of least reliable of motors... and the "save all" fix is removing plugs? If it works, awesome! I'll stick around and see what the results are after a few people give it a whirl though.

Has Peter Farrell commented on this that any one knows of? I'm curious of his response. He has been in the rotary game for some time..

 

Yo buddy! DON'T BUY IT. You have clearly made your point, thanks.

 

315 RWHP on a Mustang dyno at only 8~10 psi? Sounds like you got some of Don't Be A Rikki's secret sauce...

What are your modifications?

 

Sort of makes you wonder why Mazda didn't figure this out, doesn't it?

 

so there must be a slight radius to make flush to the housing no? if this is the case....
*edit* nevermind. i dont even want to get involved. i will just sit back and watch this thread.


i am "starting" to wonder if he has any info. if he did... and this was/is "THE" anti-det device, then this product DOES have something to do with Skip and KD. if it truly does NOT have anything to do with it as stated by Steven, then batman has been exposed for not knowing anything about this subject the whole time he has been claiming he does.
and please keep the flames out of it please. feel free to do all the flaming you want via PM's. thanks

I'm assuming here that the mustang dyno has approx a 15% difference than a Dynojet from what I understand. So subtract 15% from my numbers and that's what the mustang dyno spit out for me.

Thanks.

 

Yup. Exactly my point. Not trying to say it hasn't, or doesn't work; just baffles me that it came so late in the game..

 

Mazda did but as my product history states, Mazda needed emission control in an age where carburetors and mechanical ignition were the norm....

 

So Donkey-Kong,

You added 15% to the figure provided by the Mustang Dyno?

This means that the Mustang Dyno spitted out 274 RWHP and you added 15%?

WTF? Truth in advertising anybody?

 

Steven. I am good friends of the KDR crew and have known about this for a long time. So, you are the "nice guy" that Skip has been referring to when conversing with him about the mod. The great guy that was helping him go from version 1, which I have, to the nice one-piece plug? he must have really upset you for you to do this. I do not know what has happened to your relationship with Skip but it must have ended on a sour note.

 

Well folks, I've been up running around chasing fire trucks trying to help put out fires all day. I'm tired, going to bed, and will pick up the fire hose tomorrow.

Good night all.

Thanks,

Steven

 

So you're claiming 315 RWHP with stock twins (clipped or not) on a Mustang dyno at only ~8-10 psi? Just want to be clear on what you're claiming here.

So you added 15% to your results to make your numbers "Dynojet-compatible"? So let me get this straight... what you're saying now that you only made ~268 (315 - 15%) RWHP on the Mustang dyno?

Jesus your story has a lot of holes in it...

 

Translation... I'm full of it and can't really dispute that, so I'm leaving.

i read this and it kindof makes some sense to me.

so now if we have 2 sparks fireing at a differnet time i could see how the combustion chamber could have one flame go one way and the other flame go the oppoisit direction not makeing the flame flow in one direction, causeing DET.

but i also see where some people are coming from saying that the rotary race cars have 3 plugs now i think that that would be better than 2 plugs or just one because it would be easyer to get the flame to go one direction. makeing less det

so from what i under stand 3 plugs per rotor is SUPER great

1 plug is better than 2

but 2 plugs could really mess some things up. AKA our engine going boooooooooooom

this is just my input and what i think.

over all i would most likely try it. and i think that it might work.. i mean what could it hurt????? unless u have emissions

 

On another note, you mentioned on your website that "glowing hot" Carbon deposits can in essence cause detonation by pre-igniting the mixture before the plug sparks right?

So how does a giant metal "buttplug" with larger surface area then a small carbon deposit not heat up and do the same thing.

 

No boss, I'll be back tomorrow to play.

Later,

Steven

 

Here is my favorite part:

Customers purchase and use this product at their own risk!


The use of TrailPlug® may do the following:

* Increase combustion temperatures from leaner A/F ratio's, leading to apex seal damage, rotor face damage, turbo damage, and other heat susceptible damage.

 

Uh-ohhh, we have gotten Jim involved. I guess we won't be seeing this guy around here again.



Bottom Line- We still have no clarification if this product is in any way related to KDR.

Also-His mods are very fishy, stock intercooler and turbos? Customer ported wastegate? Big deal? This guy is just digging himself into a hole.

He would have been a lot better off posting about this himself, with real world results and testamonials. Also he should have asked a more beleivable amount for them, lets say $100. He might have sold a few for that.

I

 

for a $100 i would buy it

but not for $450 just tooo fishy

 

Ur right, it won't pass emissions.

Nor does an external-vented BOV, a DP&MP configuration, and a few other multitude of mods.
