Hi,

Just going through a KE70 pollution manual I have and it talks about a air injection (AI) system. These push cool air into your exhaust under pressure and helps promote the oxidization of CO and HC in the exhaust.

So I was wondering if anyone has one of these they can take photos off or if in the ipswich area has one for give away? As I am interested for a possible power increasing project not a decreasing one like most pollution gear is..lol

P.S. it was on the 3T-C, 1X corona motor, or the celica 21R-C motor and the 5M-E crown motor.

its a US thing

just completes combustion in your exhaust. not gonna make you for from zero to hero any faster...

They actually decrease power. The air pump runs on its own belt like an alternator and anything running on a belt will reduce power.

OK as a note this project wont be anywhere near a car.

 

If you read the manual for the car pollution gear it says this part is designed to deliver compressed air into the exhaust. So in turn these are like a super charger deliver compressed air.

So a friend of mine did this once he got one off a holden and strapped it to a lawn mower and magic he had a supercharged lawn mower. No joke worked flowed a good amount of air easy for the mower and an old spring and valve set up we even had a blow off valve for it..lol

But after this it was move off a lawn muncher so does make more power so I was thinking a super charger for my pocket rocket motor bike :) As the one he had on his mower was a holden V8 one so it could push more air than one off a Toyota 4 banger. But a pocket rocket with this off a Toyota should be mean :D

Works well in theory but you may have trouble delivering enough fuel... But hey give it a whack you can always get bigger carbies for pocket bikes on ebay if you need to...

 

PS. later model RWD TE-TG geminis had the air pump setup too as well as mazda 323/626 etc... thats the ones I know of but I'm sure there's a shitload of early to mid 80's cars with that crap dangling off 'em
