Polydyn TX7 - Increase you HP & torque for under $25

Post by BlueCrush »

I have been using this for about 2 weeks and thought I would give my review. I first heard about this on NewCelica.org: http://www.newcelica.org/forum...lydyn from Boosted2.0, a very respected member of that forum, and it sounded interesting so I thought I would give it a try. You can read all bout what it does on that link I posted and on Polydyn's website: http://www.polydyn.com/I, personally have noticed similar results. My car starts a little quicker, runs smoother (not as much engine vibration), and I have noticed an increase in and a smoothness in acceleration. You can purchase it from Boosted2.0 on NewCelica.org but I found it to be cheaper at Thunder Racing: http://www.thunderracing.com/c...P4488The nice part about it is you only have to add it to your engine once a year. 1 quart is good for 12,000 miles. Price: $23.99 + shippingMy Review:

Hmm, can't beat that, and if it does nothing, it's only $25!

It's Teflon, ground down real fine, pure and simple. Not too sure I'd use it, but your mileage may vary. I've heard various thing about adding PTFE to oil, not all of them good.EDIT: I Kant spel

Teflon's originator, Dupont says it doesn't work in motors. Other additive like zddp or moly compounds chemically bond to parts with heat and pressure. Teflon is inert and relatively soft. Works in greases but not in oil.

When I was younger, I used to buy all those cool nifty products all the time, thnking I was saving money or I was keeping my engine from wearing out sooner. I even bought one of those Teflon-impregnated oil filters to see what it would do. Didn't do squat. A worn-out engine needs a rebuild, pure and simple, not a few instant fix compounds poured into it.Spoke to an engine rebuilder about some of those other compounds, and he hates them - those instant head gasket fix stuff only hides the problem and delays the inevitable failure that will happen. Sorry, but if your head needs a 500-dollar repair job, then it needs a 500-dolar repair job, not a 12-dollar instant fix, and that goes for pretty much anything you can think of - instead of belt dressing, go get a new belt. Don't get the radiator sealant stuff that has all the copper goo floating around in it, go get a new radiator. Slipping tranny? Get new bands and get your drum resurfaced - friction modifiers can only do so much.Good way to tell if it has Teflon in it, is the instructions: "Shake well before using." Never had to do that with my oil when I change it, or even transmission fluid.
