The well known US based motorcycle performance company Schnitz Motorsport Inc. have shown interest in our Pulsoids for many years now but it took Ryan Schnitz having first hand riding experiencing of the accurate results they produce, along with the unrivalled smoothness in power delivery, for him to be convinced to add them to the Schnitz product range;

http://www.schnitzracingstore.com/catal ... prevnext=1

Cecil Towner (HTP Performance) on the otherhand, was convinced of the benefits as soon as he read what the Pulsoids had to offer and he's been using them to set world records over the past 3 years. Consequently he's been offering our products to his customers and (in conjunction with WON), he's recently launched a US 'ACCEPTABLE' high end system (based on the X-10), specifically for the US Busa market;

http://www.schnitzracingstore.com/catal ... prevnext=1


The good work of these 2 companies (in particular but in conjunction with others), is resulting in X-10 Pulsoids flooding in to the US market (the bike sector in particular), so the next time you see a US nitrous bike 'APPARENTLY' using a US brand nitrous kit, don't be so certain that the heart of the systems (the solenoids), are also a US brand, as there's a growing probability that they will be WON X-10 Pulsoids.

While we're moving towards saturating the US bike market with X-10's, we'll also be starting to introduce the REVO systems, to have them follow suit.

It's only a matter of time before the US car market appreciates what the more astute US bike market has already started to appreciate, so no doubt they'll follow suit in due course. :twisted:

Excellent news Trevor, hoping it goes well. :yes:

I'm guessing if you can get accepted in the US for cars as well as bikes you may also get more accepted here and you will be snowed under for the good ;)

EDITED:- After I read we Brits aren't really supporting you...I thought it was the other way round....lol.

Thanks for the posts and yes you'd better be taking a WON shirt with you Richard.

It's already been 30+ years so far so I can wait a few more months (hopefully), for it all to kick off big time. :twisted:

this is the epiphany of what every good engineer knows. you make a great product, and even if its not at first accepted, it eventually will be. unfortunately to many dont stick with it. Im glad trevor did! and im glad i could send at least 1 customer your way ( that i know of for a fact lol)

It's not been easy but it looks like all the hard work is paying off now.

and im glad i could send at least 1 customer your way ( that i know of for a fact lol)
:yes: Thanks for that and please feel free to direct a few more our way. :yes:
Did you get the business off the ground and if so, you should be selling our Pulsoids at least?
;)

i did trevor. i put my heart and soul into getting that place going, only to bump heads with the majority owner, and be out everything. he was a MAJOR deusch, and honestly, id rather not be associated with him or that company. Im working on my own thing now, trying to make some major moves in the drag racing world. ive got a lot of things on the table engineering wise that havent been done before. lets just say that 1.84:1 power to weight ratio far exceeds anything currently on the track, and gonna be ALL motor :) i could actually use a little help from you if you know anything about pneumatic valve springs lol.

Partnerships are to be AVOIDED at all costs - I've had numerous companies over the almost 40 years I've been self employed and the only ones that have failed have been those I've run in partnership with others. EVERY business venture I've run alone has been a 100% success.

Glad to hear it.

Outstanding by why pass up the opportunity of even better figures using my system?

i could actually use a little help from you if you know anything about pneumatic valve springs lol.
Wish I could help on that one - got any pics of those components?

i may end up using a small amount of nitrous. if i do, it will only to be to speed up the burn of the fuel, yeah ill get more power as well, but im thinking im gonna have enough power i can dial it back if i want. ill be using fuel designed to burn fast, but i might need more octane. static compression ratios of 16-19:1 depending on what i can eek out of it.

Just had contact from the latest AMERICAN customer to DUMP the NOS JUNK and purchase a Pulsoid upgrade from Schnitz Racing and as it was such a unique vehicle I thought it was worth a mention and a pic.

It's running a motorcycle engine and I'll post more pics of it when I get them;

BTW he'll be replacing those NOS stickers with WON stickers as soon as they reach him. :yes:
