Kers (kinetic energy regeneration)

PEPI

jesus!!!
just read all....... what the hell have i started????

Anyhoo - there are companies who do 'conversions' with type of technology
US Hybrid designs and manufactures clean mobility and energy conservation integrated solutions.
Hybrid Conversions For a Green Fleet | XL Hybrids

These companies may be pitched toward the transport, people movers, and freight vehicles - but in my defense, this is where i essentially I would thought I would bounce the idea of KERS technology for our make of cars.

I personally would like to have forced induction - but I would rather stay in atmo configuration. If you have the money then - sky's the limit. Most forced induction builds to be made reliable and strong do cost a lot - keep in mind I am also talking about work on the engine internals as well.

I do think there is potential here - I would have thought the hardest part of having a system like this would be having the software to manage KERS whilst interacting with the cars main ECU - to make it all work smoothly.

Bottom line it could be done as we have car makers (eg Ferrari etc) already selling car with KERS systems built into their vehicles.

It may be a little way off in the future - but looking into it....the future may lie in KERS technology slowly becoming the choice over s/c or turbo'ing. Engines are now becoming highly effecient - businesses are applying it to fleet vehicles as we speak it would seem....

Forums are places to share ideas - from these ideas R&D work some times become a reality - you never know. Got to start somewhere.

So in closing - I will be careful in future not to post threads tooooooooo 'outhere' so as not to spark war and peace posts................. I'd be better off concentrating getting my info and pic builds of my Zed onto the forum.
