The article makes it clear the Bomb people were there prepping their
motor also, so I'd say it's independent testing, the losers will always
have the dealers making excuses. In this case the Bomb engine was 13HP
below the Merc that's a fair bit of HP.


a Yamaha was slightly under it's claimed 250HP & your engine Co's

was way down on HP & to some users more importantly; torque.



BUT the peak torque comes in at a lower & more usable rpm...


I think that's a fair comment & probably it would have been relevant if
the engine made the claimed HP as the others in the class did, but when
it's only a 239HP engine it sounds like the dealers are trying to still
sell no matter what???

Remember these engines are thousands of dollars dearer than the
competition, not hundreds but thousands!!!! Where is that extra money
going?? certainly we can't see it going into the engines which are
simple old style 2 strokes with a ficht injector system??? No multiple
variable timing cam shafts,multi valves per cyl,super chargers,world
leading & proven GM technology base?? none of that with these super
priced whipper snipper motors.

The clear suspicion needs to be that the "extra" money is being thrown
at the dishonest dealers so they'll flog them & say/do whatever it takes
to make their windfall profits. There's no way the dealers or bomb will
ever admit any of this indeed the rebate, subsidy, training BS money
return schemes are so well hidden not even dealer staff are aware. The
same marketing ploy was used to flog the Fichts & the dealers of course
even in this NG denied it all day long, till the bankruptcy court
uncovered the truth when the dealers tried to recover the kickbacks.
Which was Her Honour found the dealers had extracted 30% post retail
sale kickbacks & that they were never entitled to them, indeed we were
hoping she'd refer them for resale price maintenance:-) The dealers were
flogging known defective ficht engines for extra money (one even made it
clear they'd said they'd stop selling ficht unless they got bigger
rebates etc).

Now these dealer idiots think they can run the exact same scam & nobody
will say anything??



A name change doesn't clear the slate,



It's more than a name change - & you know it... actually you probably
don't...


It's nothing more than a name change, all the claimed "improvements" are
about trying to get enough engines to hold together long enough that the
dealers will sell sell sell for their super markup??.

How does a treated bore stop detonation??

Better & more even heat transfer to water jackets eliminating hot spots
in the chamber.


How do high melting point pistons stop detonation???

Endothermic friendly metallurgy promotes heat transfer from hot piston
centers & to cylinder walls & water jackets. Lowers & evens cylinder
temperatures reducing detonation.

How does high temp oil & then even less of it stop detonation??

Low ash high temp oil has a higher flash point, resisting
combustion/dieselingsyndrome, reducing detonation.

How does an impact injector/garden hose nozzle combo provide enough
atomisation to stop detonation???

It doesn't. The combination of chamber shape, heat dissipation,
cylinder, piston, & head materials, as well as coatings, all affect
flame travel, & tendencies toward detonation or not. The injector
system, however you may "want" to characterize it, is at the end of the
whole process. Controlled by a properly programmed ECM, the injectors
should provide an optimum charge, atomized enough for good combustion,
and in sufficient quantity for additional cooling of the
compression/injection stroke, with proper droplet size, all to attain
stoichiometric proportions in the approach to complete combustion. This
is the balancing trick - and hence the other tweaks - the lean charge
must also be enough to complete the cooling process too.

How does running an engine at power on hugely lean mixtures stop
detonation??

This is the balancing trick - and hence the other tweaks - the lean
charge must also be enough to complete the cooling process too.

it caused the base heat buildup that starts detonation.

How does a beefed up huge extra drag gearcase stop detonation??

Keeps the Sidewinder/Switzer kids from picking this model to run WOT all
day long up on a jack plate...

The answer is none do: all those things are a lame (is not an MP3
emulator:-)) attempt to make the engines able to withstand the
inevitable detonation consequences when run lean at power on poorly
atomised low pressure injection with very questionable lubrication.

Thanks for the E-Tec spruik Rob but hey I'm sure you got a lucrative
deal to fit them?? much more dollars than the other brands???

You REALLY don't know me...

but what is it to your advantage to de-spruik something you don't
understand?
