GIXXERUK Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Might not do much but looks good would be cheaper to throw spaggetti over your engine........... words of wisdom the theory is the the earthing circuit on the zed is poor so this improves that helping the signals to the ecu well thats the theory i think you can get them on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I felt a noticeable difference in both my zeds when i fitted one of these. The lumpy idle disappeared and the car just felt that bit sharper. it was mainly noticeable in the low gears especially 1st when pulling away at junctions and islands etc. However, the differences are negligible and the problems it irons out are probably things you never actually thought were problems in the first place. On that basis alone I'd fit one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 I took the car out and it is definitely smoother, the a/f mix must be better due to the signals getting to the ecu faster ? the car has always felt slightly jerky when decellerating or crawling slowly but now it doesn't, the tick over is also improved imo this will having varying affects on each individual car, depending on how well or how poor it is earthed before hand i can reiterate what sarnie said all in all better than spaghetti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
