RooiLux soon to be EFI'ed!(COMPLETED)

RooiLux · Post by **RooiLux** » Fri May 06, 2011 12:24 pm

Nou ja na vele gesukkel met 'n weber carb wat aanhou flood en humeur wat opvlam en 'n laaaang gestoei oor die besluit is die besluit gemaak om die EFI roete te vat.

Gaan vandag om die 3y intake manifold te koop sal seker oor die naweek die res van die parte koop sal sien hoe tyd uitwerk.

Sal op hoogte hou sodra die wiel begin draai en dinge aan die gebeur is!

Wil net dankie sê vir Louis met al die raad en advies en jou waarsku ek gan moontlik binnekort op jou knoppie druk.

Watch this space manne!

Groetnis.

please don't waste your money guys, efi will only give you an extra 3kw, rather just replace the viscous fan with an electric fan, that will give you an extra 5kw and u can do it for less than 1k!

Don't want to sound gullable, but is that true?

Mr B ,Something is wrong with your efi,may be you need Louis to do the fine tuning for you.

Post by **LouisZ** » Fri May 06, 2011 8:42 pm

I think he forgot to fit his efi... or maybe a April's fools joke. He he he

Mr_B · Post by **Mr_B** » Fri May 06, 2011 8:47 pm

it's all true, you get better power with a weber 36DCD. Rebel... u do sound gullible!

Just install the weber 180deg on the vertical, to remedy the fuel starvation issues!

Borntofish · Post by **Borntofish** » Fri May 06, 2011 9:29 pm

So if it is efi'd and i remove the fan and replace it i would have near v8 performance...Wow!

The Legend · Post by **The Legend** » Fri May 06, 2011 9:38 pm

Hi Werner

What a brilliant idea,may be i must ask Louis to do the electic fan conversion for me as well while the bakkie is with him .

Post by **Mud Dog** » Fri May 06, 2011 9:46 pm

The electric fan replacement is an old trick .... it does help.

Mr_B · Post by **Mr_B** » Sat May 07, 2011 6:00 pm

seriously, i've done the electric fans conversion, and after 2 attempts went back 2 viscous, it's more reliable, runs nearly silent and the performance/fuel consumption gains are negligible... For me viscous wins!

Nee Arno,ek koop al die parte en doen die skoon maak werk self om tyd en geld te spaar,Louis sal meeste van die werk doen sodra ek al die parte bymekaar het en als skoon is en hy tyd het om myne toe doen,hy is nou tns besig met een vd forum se lede se bakkie.

My vrou het haar kar so 2 weke gelede gerol so ons het nou net 2 karre op die oomblik so die efi sal seker eers teen einde vd maand begin afhangende vd versekering se uitbetaling of besliut om die kar af te skryf of reg te maak.So my bakkie word tans nou daagliks gebruik ipv net naweke.

Maar ja ek sal van Louis gebruik maak siende dat hy weet hoe om die efi te doen en hy dit op so gereelde basis doen dat hy dit goed verstaan.

Ek het die manifold begin skoon maak sal later fotos post daarvan het eintlik vergeet om before foto te neem maar sal van die res before en after neem soos ek vorder.

Will do but must say it is not much of a difference if Louis does everything some parts I got cheaper and some were more expensive as Louis said pricing can differ a lot depending on availablity and where you buy from.So Louis pricing is about 100% spot on.

If I had to do another efi conversion I would rather opt to just give him the moola and he does everything is way more hassle free and he knows exactly what parts he needs.

Must just say thanks to Louis for all his help and patience as we phoned him a lot and he helped us everytime very nice guy and always helpfull!
Glad to have someone like this in pretoria who knows his stuff and always helps.

Big up to Louis!

Dankie Louis vir jou harde werk

RooiLux · Post by **RooiLux** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:25 am

Ja nee kyk Louis impress my teen die tempo wat hy werk,ek het nie gedink dinge sal so gou al so ver wees nie.

Maar dis goed so want my agterent jeuk om te voel hoe die bakkie perform as dit klaar is!!

Ou Legend · Post by **Ou Legend** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:38 am

Haha ek sal jou glo,Louis bou my dizzy saam joune,ek kan self nie wag nie.

RooiLux · Post by **RooiLux** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:42 am

Dis maar beter dat hy dit doen hy ken sy storie!

As ek so na die fotos kyk van die bedrading is ek maar baie bly ek het besluit om dit nie self te doen nie lyk maar beroerd :problem:

Ou Legend · Post by **Ou Legend** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:51 am

Dis nes jy da se,Kuruman is n bietjie ver van Pretoria af,en die anner probleem wat ek het,wat ons almal maar eintlik het is Finansies so ek het nie n keuse nie,ek moet dit maar self doen,ek glo darm ek sal reg kom,ek ken darm van drade en meganiese kant doen ek baie op my en my pa se Hilux'se.Wanneer gaan jou lux klaar wees?

RooiLux · Post by **RooiLux** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:56 am

quote Wanneer gaan jou lux klaar wees?

Jong Louis het gese so 3 weke so ek dink nog so week oor maar ek wil hom nie aanjaag nie ek los hom dat hy op sy tyd aangaan.

Louis ken sy werk en as dinge langer vat is dit omdat hy dit ordentlik doen so ek wag maar geduldig vir die oproep wat se my bakkie is klaar en ek kan hom kom haal

Gewoontlik as mens iemand begin anjaag wat 'n job vir jo doen begin hy kortpaaie vat en droogmaak en ek weet Louis is nie so tipe ou nie hy gee eers jou bakkie as hy 100% is so dis hoekom ek maar geduldig wag en ek verstaan ook Louis werk deur die dag so ek weet hy werk net 'n paar ure 'n aand so ek het geweet voor ek begin het met die conversion dat dit 'n tydjie gan vat.

Darm weet ek die wag gaan definitief die wag werd wees op die einde

Koop dit by die ou smart racing shop daar in pta wes,het nou 'n nuwe naam maar kan nie onthou wat dit is nie ek dink amper vision west of so iets.

Jy ka ndit ook by montana fleamarket koop vir R45 each ek het dit ees raak gesien na ek R150 een betaal het by die smart racing plek

Maar ek dink die by die fleamarket is van swak gehalte dis mos als knock off's of copies van original items.
