			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img alt="aem dryflow filter Best Air Filters " id="image385" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/aem-dryflow-filter.jpg" title="Best Air Filters " /></p>
<p>AEM Dryflow synthetic filter is the first performance air filter ever produced that does not require a filter fuel. AEM filter is offered for your carâ€™s lifetime without causing any worry to the engine performance. AEM filter stands out in its efficiency in removing the dust from the engine. It can filter 98.6% of the airborne dust initially and offers a 99.4% cumulative efficiency. This result was based on independent SAE J276 JUN93 Fine Dust Air Cleaner Test Code procedures. Thanks to the synthetic non-woven polyester used in the AEM filter.</p>
<p><span id="more-360"></span>The water-resistant material resists the entry of water particles and so avoids the cumbersome process of oiling the medium every time you clean the system and also reduces the cleaning time and frequency. It is more durable than the cotton gauze used in the normal filters.</p>
<p>Another feature of AEMâ€™s Dryflow filter is that it allows extra airflow to the engine even when the filter is dirty. This efficiency is in particular helpful to the engines, which possess larger displacement and have to overcome the â€˜brute forceâ€™ intakes. This extra flow of air is made possible by the intelligent technology applied by AEM. The filter size is calculated according to the demand of the air supply from the engine. AEM then designs the air filter that can withstand a much higher airflow leaving a room for future demands or engine modifications.</p>
<p>The air filter comes in various specifications. The size ranges from 2.25â€ with short neck 5â€ Element to the 6â€ with short neck 9â€element. The Dryflow filter never voids the warranty of the vehicle and so can be considered the best choice for your car.</p>

<p><img alt="bmc air filters Best Air Filters " id="image386" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/bmc-air-filters.jpg" title="Best Air Filters " /></p>
<p>BMC air filters are made of cotton and are better compared to the original paper filters. These cotton air filters now replace the original filters in F1.The BMC air filters are made of the best alloy mesh with epoxy coating in order to protect it from the harmful petrol fumes and to prevent oxidization. The filtering gauze is soaked with a low-viscosity oil to allow maximum air permeability and water resistance.</p>
<p>BMC Red Filters are another innovative production from the BMC. This filter is manufactured using a single piece of soft rubber molding and so does not have joints. This â€œFull Moldingâ€ concept belongs to F1 and is combined with the technical ingenuity of BMC.</p>
<p><strong>Injen Air Filters</strong> at http://www.injen.com</p>
<p><img alt="injen air filters Best Air Filters " id="image387" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/injen-air-filters.jpg" title="Best Air Filters " /></p>
<p>The air filters from Injen boast the most detailed technology that makes it possible to produce filters suitable for each application. The filter mesh and the pleat count of each filter of Injen vary according to the specification. The Injen filters are made of cotton gauze elements. The various specifications come as Black water repellent Pre-Filter, Blue water repellant Pre-Filter, High Performance air filter, and Red water repellant Pre-Filter and come in various filter mesh and pleat counts.<br />
Air filters have the dual purposes- increase the airflow to the engine and thus give more power output. But before replacing the air filter in your car, make sure that the system is suitable to your application.</p>

<p>Here we dedicate a few lines for the electronics accessories used in a car. These are the products, which can be considered as the backbone of todayâ€™s cars. AEM, a pioneer in the research and manufacturing of electronic products for cars, has a wide range of electronic products suitable for different models of cars.</p>
<p><span id="more-185"></span><strong>Plug &#038; Play Engine Management System</strong></p>
<p><img id="image189" alt="engine management systems Electronics in Cars " src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/engine-management-systems.jpg" title="Electronics in Cars " /></p>
<p>AEMâ€™s Plug&#038; Play Engine Management System (EMS) is an easy plug nâ€™ play facility capable of improving the performance of the fuel injection tuning system. This system can be programmed by the user himself and can be directly inserted into the ECU harness without the help of any external device or hardware. The software used in the EMS is very simple and compatible with all operating systems such as Windows 2000, NT, 98, 95, and ME. To add more flexibility to the user, this system has been provided with user-defined templates, which makes the tuning process under control. With this software, the user can program any combination of engine control, power adders, and auxiliary devices, and thus can maintain the fuel efficiency and ignition timing under different operating conditions. Other important features of EMS include the Fuel Table Automapping, Onboard 51kb datalogger, and 10cyl sequential fuel injection capability, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Universal Engine Management System</strong></p>
<p><img id="image190" alt="universal engine management Electronics in Cars " src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/universal-engine-management.jpg" title="Electronics in Cars " /></p>
<p>AEMâ€™s Universal Engine Management System has more features than the Plug &#038; Play EMS. Universal EMS has an additional ten independent built-in peak and hold injector driver channels, direct drive ignition and dual wideband UEGO controllers. The function of peak &#038; hold injector drivers is to utilize the low impedance injectors with a 4/1 peak &#038; hold injector drive circuit. Direct drive is to provide a coil directly from the ECU without the help of an ignition module. Wideband UEGO controllers supply 0-5 signal for monitoring and tuning air/fuel ratio on highly modified engines.</p>
<p><strong>Serial Datastream Gauge</strong></p>
<p><img id="image191" alt="serial datastream gauge Electronics in Cars " src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/serial-datastream-gauge.jpg" title="Electronics in Cars " /></p>
<p>AEMâ€™s Serial Datastream Gauge plugs into the AEM EMS and has the capacity to read the 19 channels simultaneously. The main function of this gauge is provide reference for all outputs, such as the boost, AFR, EGT, H2O, IAT, knock, volts, RPM, vehicle speed, etc. This capacity of AEMâ€™s serial gauge avoids the use of multiple gauges to read the individual outputs separately.</p>
<p>One of the main components of this intelligent gauge is the LED display. The LED display is capable of setting specific limits, warnings, display and operating ranges of the vehicles. It runs the EMS datastream and includes 12 preset channels and seven other channels that are user-selectable and custom-configurable with the help of PC interface. The serial gauge is provided with a min/max storage for every channel and records the min/max values even when the system is not in use. There is also an alarm facility which will warn the user if any of the channel value exceeds the limit. In case, multiple alarms arise simultaneously, there is a facility to prioritize the alarms, enabling you to notice them in the priority order.</p>
<p>The quick-connect technology is another important feature of this gauge by which you are able to install it easily without causing any damage to the circuit. In addition to these, the gauge is provided with a harness, a wiring to the EMS, a daisy-chain adapter and installation software.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img alt="intercooler Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" id="image165" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/intercooler.jpg" title="Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" /></p>
<p><strong>Intercooler </strong>exchanges the heat between two systems in an engine and thus maintains a constant temperature inside it. There are two types of <strong>intercoolers </strong>depending on the type of coolants used in them. Some of the <strong>intercoolers </strong>use air drawn from atmosphere as cooling agent; others use water stored in the system as the coolant.</p>
<p>The cooling action is very simple. Hot air from the turbo flows through the tubes of the <strong>intercooler</strong>. This heats up the tube. When a cooling agent like the air or water flows over the tubes, it absorbs the heat from the tubes and makes the air inside the tube cooler again. The heat thus drawn from the tubes is released to the atmosphere.</p>
<p><span id="more-156"></span><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" target="_blank" href="http://www.vividracing.com">www.vividracing.com</a>, an online store, which showcases automobile products and accessories from various companies such as Injen, APS, Greddy, TurboXS, PWR, Forge, Blitz, ARC, and many more, has a wide collection of intercoolers in their gallery. Located at a 10,000sq.ft. area in Chandler, AZ, they also offer on-the-spot service and solutions for installation, dynotuning, and vehicle building. Their awesome service has enabled them to be featured in the columns of   many magazines like Bimmer, Super Street, Performance Auto &#038; Sound, Import Tuner and many more.</p>
<p>Vividracingâ€™s online store of <strong>intercoolers </strong>attracts the customers with both the quality and the number of the items in their website. There are over 125 products in this particular category only. The most important feature of their website is that you can search the product matching the model of your car, and in case you donâ€™t find the model you are looking for, there is online support available to lead you to the correct destination. Nonetheless to say, you will never be discouraged by Vividracingâ€™s service.</p>
<p>Letâ€™s look at some of the latest models&#8230;</p>
<p><img alt="alta performance intercoole Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" id="image163" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/alta-performance-intercoole.jpg" title="Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" /></p>
<p>Alta Performance has come up with a hood scoop air diverter for the Mini cooper. The Alta Performance model is different from the fragile plastic unit from the factory â€“ it is taller and wider, allowing more volume of air to flow to the intercooler. In situations when extremely high temperature is produced and maximum cooling is required, there is a special water spray jet system which sprays high pressure mists on the surface of the cooler, causing evaporation to happen very quickly effecting a faster cooling.</p>
<p><img alt="arc intercooler Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" id="image164" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/arc-intercooler.jpg" title="Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" /></p>
<p>ARC front mount intercooler gives wider options in terms of its cooling action. ARC claims that its model is better than the factory product, which often is not fitted in a perfect position allowing the heat to concentrate inside the engine. ARCâ€™s solution to this is a wider cooler with efficient pipe system. They provide all the accessories such as the hoses, pipes and necessary mounts in order to assure a perfect working system.</p>
<p><img alt="greddy intercooler Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" id="image166" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/greddy-intercooler.jpg" title="Intercoolers At Your Handâ€™s Reach" /></p>
<p>Greddy has got a wide range of intercoolers for a variety of models such as Honda Civic, Honda Prelude, Acura Integra, Mazda RX7, Mitsubishi EVO, etc.</p>
<p>To be safe on the roads, be with the right people â€“ that is the advice from Vividracing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img id="image161" alt="e85 E85 + N2O = Big Power" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/e85.jpg" title="E85 + N2O = Big Power" /></p>
<p>The big power here is O<sub>2</sub> Technology, the leader in combustion engine technology. O<sub>2</sub> Technology focuses on lending technical solutions where alternate fuels such as nitrous oxide and E85 are used. Log on to <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" target="_blank" href="http://www.o2-technology.com/">http://www.o2-technology.com</a>, and you will realize what the scientists at O<sub>2</sub> Technology have contributed to the world in terms of their E-85 and Nitrous Oxide technology and a variety of products such as the fuel systems, pressure gauge systems, filters, etc., which are compatible with E-85 and Nitrous Oxide.</p>
<p><span id="more-160"></span>E85 &#8211; The name sounds more technical; isnâ€™t it? E-85 stands for 85% Ethanol, and the remaining 15% is gasoline, the fuel which we are worried about.</p>
<p>The demand for a better fuel is always there. As the global powers are heating up to unearth the future fuel of engines, a master technology in this field is what intelligent people will ponder of. No doubt, O<sub>2</sub> Technology proves their intelligence and worth by introducing the technology for such fuels in the auto industry. As per the E-85 dyno results, the E-85 proves to be equally powerful as gasoline.</p>
<p>Ethanol is much cheaper than petrol, and it is easily obtained from many sources such as the sugar cane, a variety of grains, which contain starch, and also almost all fruits. The process of distilling is also comparatively cheaper and trouble-free. Though alcohol is less combustible than petrol, it is found that the presence of air molecules in the compound adds to the efficiency by producing more power in each combustion.  Therefore, there is no compromise on the efficiency when compared to a petrol engine. E-70, a 70:30 ethanol: gasoline fuel is also available in the market.</p>
<p><img id="image162" alt="e85 and nitro E85 + N2O = Big Power" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/e85-and-nitro.jpg" title="E85 + N2O = Big Power" /></p>
<p>The environmental-friendly effects of E-85 are multifold. The official US report green-signals E-85 stating that the emission of hydrocarbons and benzenes from these engines is considerably lower than that in gasoline-run engines. The amount of carbon dioxide produced during the combustion of ethanol is in turn recycled for the production of the crops, which produce the raw materials for the manufacture of ethanol. By allowing the CO<sub>2</sub>, the pollutant responsible for the green house effect, we can reduce the global warming. As ethanol is easily degradable in water, the waste does not cause any threat to natureâ€™s water bodies.<br />
O<sub>2</sub> Technology is happy about the E-85 Dyno Results. The data they collected in the survey substantiates the fact that E-85 is better than the conventional fuels. The alcohol â€“ petrol combination of the fuel makes the engine run cooler and draw less power than the gasoline-run engines.</p>
<p>Quick Fuel Technology also finds its place in this remarkable technological achievement along with O<sub>2</sub> Technology for assisting the later in the E-85 project.</p>
<p>With more pressure on car companies and racing partners to avoid the lead-based fuel from the streets, the demand for E-85 and such alternate fuels is increasing. The National Street Car Association has decided to approve E-85 as the future fuel for their American Muscle Car and the Street Machine (racing class) models.</p>

<p>The <strong>differential </strong>in a car is intended to split the torque of the engine in two different ways so as to produce different speeds at different points. For example, when a car takes a turn, the inside wheels travel a shorter distance than the outside ones and thus both move at different speeds. As the wheels are interconnected, producing different speeds for different wheels would have been impossible without the help of the differential.</p>
<p><span id="more-149"></span>All modern cars and trucks are fitted with <strong>differentials</strong>. They have <strong>differentials </strong>between each set of wheels and one between the front and the back wheel.</p>
<p>Vividracing, an online store for the sale of car products and accessories, has displayed a series of <strong>differentials </strong>from companies across the world. These include <u>Greddy</u>, <u>Cusco</u>, <u>Quaife</u>, <u>Nismo</u>, <u>Rogue Engineering</u> and many more. Log on to <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" target="_blank" href="http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/4257_4518">http://www.vividracing.com</a> and find many more from their gallery.</p>
<p>Central 20 Japan offers a new 3.9 final differential set for a better acceleration for your vehicle in every gear. It offers the set with complete installation kit, which includes components such as the pinion nut, pinion crush sleeve, and pinion oil seal from Nissan.</p>
<p><img id="image151" alt="cusco lsd Differentials â€“ an answer to the wild wheels" src="http://2fastlane.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/cusco-lsd.jpg" title="Differentials â€“ an answer to the wild wheels" /></p>
<p>Cusco LSD is joining the race with its high-tension chrome molybdenum steel housing and gears. Cusco is proud of its original groove technology, which ensures efficiency and long life to its differentials. The coil springs used in Cusco instead of the common cone used in other models ensures complete action of the system during acceleration and deceleration by its smoother engagement.</p>
<p>Greddy Differential for Mazda RX7 FD3S offers aluminum differential covers, which ensure better oil capacity and cooling. It is equipped with internal baffles to control oil spill and integrated 3/8â€ PT port for the extreme usage conditions.</p>
<p>Here is a multipurpose Limited Slip Differential from Nismo Limited. Equipped with four pinion gears, this model is Ideal for city driving. There are many options with this system. The plate type can be converted to the 2-way LSD from the 1.5 way LSD. And if you wish to adjust the initial torque, it can be done without de-assembling it.</p>
<p>PERRIN has an important message for the adventurous car owners. â€˜Always keep your rear end cool!â€™ The famous PERRIN Performance TM Differential cover is made of cast aluminum, ensuring more strength and durability. They are equipped with cooling fins to reduce the temperature of the fuel, and indirectly it plays an advantageous role on the life of your expensive differential. These are ideal for all STi models and R180 rear differentials.</p>
<p>Quaife A.T.B. Differential Acura Integra GS-R 92-93 offers a better version of a differential with powers to maintain both wheels at the same time under almost all conditions. There is a lot of difference in the mechanism of a Quaife differential from that of others. For example, a Quaife differential senses the wheel with more grip and adjusts the power accordingly. This mechanism saves the engine from unnecessary power loss, which is a common problem with other differentials.</p>
<p>Go for the best or sacrifice your vehicleâ€™s life- the choice is yours.</p>
