Franky Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 What on earth is a pop charger ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theman Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi mate, new to this game to! It is basically an induction kit, the name relates to the make. Everyone who has them fitted really rates them. Hope that gives a bit of an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Get this question every other week. You should search! Pop Charger = Induction Kit/Air Intake, whatever you want to call it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick43 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Isn't there any concern that this don't eliminate fine partcles as efficiently as stock item, which could cause damage to bores ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 In short, no. In a more detailed explanation, also no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ma'z'y Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 so whats all this bussiness about the zed ecu cancelling out any gains made from mods? "bang for buck" suggests more power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 the only mod i'm aware of that will give noticable change to performance is the plenum spacers. all other mods like exhaust, induction etc are cancelled out, untill you add a piggyback ecu or a replacement ECU. then they make the difference. but the search button is your best friend here as its a topic regualrly covered.

ma'z'y Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I thought that was the case, iv also read the early imports ecu wont cancell out gains, not sure why this would be different though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWZ Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I was a bit dubious about installing a pop charger, but when I installed my K&N typhoon a couple of months ago it makes a world of difference to the noise...groin factor 10! But no increase in whp. If you like noise, fit a pop charger, find a tunnel and then come back and tell us what you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 The majority of mods for the Zed will be for noise only. Plenum spacer is the only thing it cant cancel out as you are not effecting the flow rates (in or out) but just distrobuting them better. The ECU in the Zed controls the airflow to the engine via the FBW throttle, which means even if you put your foot to the floor it wont open the throttle all the way. It knows for a given revs/speed/temperature/load how much it should be flowing (within a fixed range) and it will adjust the throttle to give that flow. If you increase the flow (intake/exhaust) it will just dial them out with the throttle. A piggyback ECU or reflash will stop it doing this.
