1. Cutting pollution. In normal cars without the Surbo, which have less power and need more throttle pressure to accelerate, more fuel is pumped into the engine (as fuel pressure is proportional to throttle travel). However, the air enters the engine later than the fuel due to air filter losses. The result is much unburnt fuel going out through the exhaust. If you are behind even modern cars with your windows down, you might sometimes smell the fuel when they suddenly accelerate.
A car fitted with a Surbo emits less unburnt fuel. A Surbo car can accelerate as quickly with less pressure on the throttle, meaning less fuel is put in for the same work. The Surbo enables air to come in more quickly by giving your car's air intake more air-suction power, overcoming the air filter's resistance. The result is more complete burning and lower emissions. On diesels, the Surbo cuts most of the black smoke.
Latest Emission Test Results:Test results are based on percentage of total air passed. Surbo reduces HC (unburnt hydrocarbons) from 55 ppm (parts per million) to 52 ppm {HC reduced absolutely by 3/55=5.45%}. CO (poisonous carbon monoxide) is cut from 1.7% to 0.8% (absolute reduction of CO by 0.9/1.7=52.9%), and CO2 (which is responsible for global warming) is cut from 5% to 3% (absolute reduction of CO2 by 2/5=40%). This test was conducted at Vicom Inspection Centre in Singapore on 10 FEB 2004 on our test car, the petrol Peugeot 405 1.6. Details
How can CO and CO2 be reduced so dramatically? It may be because the Surbo draws in more air, so there is more oxygen available for oxidizing the incompletely-combusted CO to stable CO2, and with less fuel put in, of course less CO2 can be formed from complete combustion, going by the equation. The world is very concerned about the global-warming effects of CO2 so help us fight this battle by spreading the word. Thank you.
Malaysian report--Surbo cuts 75% of CO2 emitted by race Proton Satria GTi 1.8 with catalytic converter (cat) removed--from 1000 g/km to 250 g/km. (new car: 227 g/km according to CAR Magazine of UK)
This means that-
i. The Surbo cleans the exhaust, almost like a cat.
ii. If the cat was back in place, the gases would be even cleaner.
iii. A less restrictive (less costly, more powerful) cat could be used with a Surbo, keeping to the original emission level.
iv. Longer cat life with less to do.
2. Helping to conserve dwindling supplies of fuel. In a car that is power-assisted by Surbo, the throttle travel required for acceleration or cruising is much smaller, so less fuel is used. As a result, responding customers average about 10% in fuel savings.
3. Keeping cars roadworthy for longer. Fewer resources need to be used for expensive overhauls, as the Surbo restores lost compression easily. No need to change an old car for a newer one just for more power. Or get a car with a bigger engine (that will usually use up more fuel, and indeed, produce more CO2). Neither will you have to go for extensive modifications.
