1. More torque. Torque means instant twist power. The engine with Surbo on can accelerate briskly and sustain the acceleration to red line or beyond, all on half throttle or less. That means easier pickup, and fuel savings because you will press less on average.
2. Higher power peak. If your car starts slowing down the moment you hit 4000 rpm, you know it's time to restore the power. The Surbo takes your engine back to red line easily and puts back some 50% of existing acceleration power based on rpm, assuming a red line of 6000 rpm. It also means that instead of travelling 40 metres, you travel 60 metres in about the same time taken, given the quick flick of the tachometer when the Surbo is activated. That puts you a clear 20 metres ahead, and up the gears you will pull even further away from other cars as they start to slow down once they get to third gear. You could never be accused of holding up traffic!
3. Hill climbing. Do you have to tackle these often? Steep car parks? Well, the Surbo has a great affinity for hills. Just going up the incline, activate the Surbo to race up the hill. More..
4. Airconditioner on all the time? Saps a lot of power, doesn't it? Well, with the Surbo, the aircon load becomes less of a problem due to the power assistance.
5. Carrying a load meant for an MPV? Sending half a dozen people home? The Surbo diminishes the load and gives your car added muscle. It pulls and lugs, and of course you can have the aircon on as well.
6. Fast driving on long hauls. The cross-country, few-hour long trips on which the priority is getting to the destination ASAP, and the road seems too straight for you to keep to sane speeds anyway. You'll find that you may get to your rated top speed with less than full throttle. (That means an increase in BHP as BHP has a direct relation with top speed, while acceleration has a closer relation with torque). Or you'll be travelling constantly, say at 150kph with about half throttle. The increase in the top end will be especially noticeable if your car has accumulated a lot of mileage and needed a lot of coaxing to run so fast. If your foot is tired, you can ease off the accelerator a little, but your car will keep moving (more than with no Surbo) as this raises the back pressure at the Surbo and pushes the car .
7. Overtaking. Just prepare the Surbo for temporary steroids, muscling in clearly with a tingling throttle so you know when to stick your car out. Then it's a quick shove, relentless pulling to red line, repeating in the next gear if necessary, cutting in and driving normally till you need the boost again.
8. Fuel saving. Since cruising speed is a function of the top speed, and top speed has been raised with the Surbo, the engine needs to exert less effort on expressways. The result is fuel saved. Our customer feedback shows that the maximum-economy speed gets stretched from the usual 90 kph to 110 or 120 kph. e.g.. A Surbo Civic ESi will do 12 km/l in town but 17 km/l at 110 kph.
Is that like a normal day in your driving? Or how fast you'd like your car to be? If it is, you might like to check out the Surbo and see how marvelous and useful it is with its power on demand. Try it!
