rather than wasting time on a crapy electrical stabilizer that may or may not work why dont you take your smarts and use them for something good like making something that can allow a MSD ignition box work with the daewoos

I'm not an electrical engineer... I'm a fabricator. And besides, I didn't even make that box, another forum member did, I was only kind enough to host it for him.

It seems as if you guys got enough product support, so I'll keep looking elsewhere.

What is that about? He is a Suzuki guy not a Daewoo guy anyway. Why would he have the slightest interest in making an ignition for a Daewoo? The Suzuki Aerio guys are cool peeps. Wow! what a post! You first insult the guy and then tell him what he should be doing with his talent? I hope you were just joking. :?

He was insulted?
Did I miss something?

:?

I didn't see any insults, only some BS flags were raised when an electronic device that claims to do something that it may or may not be able to do was talked about.
There are so many people and companies trying to take advantage of people's lack of automotive knowledge and trying to take your hard earned money with their gimmicks it isn't funny.

As with so many products that do NOT do what they claim, everyone should be warned about an unscroupulous product and to stay away.
But, if this product works and does what it claims, then great! Everyone should get one if they have the spare cash.

I don't really feel like trading my cow for any magic beans today. :)

first off if i insulted anyone let me start by saying im sorry that your mind concieved that as a insult

as for the Suzuki Aerio... wait that looks like a Chevy Aveo... oh, thats a daewoo car right???? Oh thats right it uses the same drivetrain as the DAEWOO lanos. hmmm you know what.. nubira uses the same ignition set up as the lanos and as far as i know the Suzuki Forenza uses the same drivetrain as the nubira. hope you dont plan on modding your ignition anytime soon.

and for the prudunt that MR. BILL is pushing, im not a electronical enginier so i dont know if it would work or not, the only person i know of that could tell use would be Erfinder, but i never said that it wouldnt work, i just said that its crap.

im not tring to cause chaos or any problems here but i would rather see parts that work and have reall uses.

Just buy a MSD DIS system for your woo. What type of MSD are you guys trying to use. I talk to my step brother who is a mechanic, and mods cars on a regular basis, says the MSD DIS system will work on any DIS car, because it already has triggers built in the MSD unit

WooHoo ... sorry, but the Suzuki Aerio is AWD (all wheel drive) and does not have the same drive train as the ChevyAveo/Daewoo Kalos. The Aerio is all Suzuki and is in no way related to the Daewoo family of cars.

The Aerio:
Standard Engine: 2294cc (2.3L) in line 4 cyllinder
Horsepower 155 @ 5400 RPMs
Torque: 152 @ 3000 RPMs


A quick look @ http://autos.yahoo.com will give these specs. :)

Well, I was not entirely insulted... but this whole post was starting to turn into something ugly. Most likely due to the fact that the original topic surrounded some e-bay crap.

I only replied to let you guys know that the boxes do work, if only in a minor, but measurable way. But I do agree with not buying most crap off of e-bay when the seller has no knowledge of the part and they are someone you can't talk to about the product.

As for the Aerio... not all of them are AWD... that's only one drivetrain option, of which right now is only available in an automatic. It's actually assmebled in Japan (that really means something these days) has three transmission options, and just about everything you can think of comes standard on it. They are really torquey, and suprisingly fast. The first model year was 2002, and it was built around the Esteem/Baleno platform. So the chassis and engine have been around for quite sometime.

The only common demoninator they share with Daewoo is GM. While Suzuki stands on it's own merits worldwide, GM holds a 20% stake in the company. So, like any big overbearing company they pushed 4 of their Daewoo products on them and told them to rebadge them and you will make money. In Canada Suzuki gets the Aveo hatch, but up there they call it the Swift+, and they also get the Reno. Here in the states Suzuki gets the Verona and the Forenza. I know Canada gets one of those as well, I just can't remember which one. They are good cars but seriously under powered.

The 2.5 liter V-6 that comes in the Verona has an enemic 155 hp, when Suzuki's own Aerio 2.3 liter 4 banger has that much hp! To me that means there's probably oodles of untapped power just waiting to come alive in the Daewoo products... now if there was only more aftermarket support for us, life would be just dandy!

Anyway, I was only trying to be helpful in offering my services to further your guy's chance at an aftermaket. I've only got a CNC Mill and CNC Lathe at my disposal, so the scope of what I can make is somewhat limited only by your creativity, and quantities of parts wanted. (or as I've found out, the ability of people to get together and pay in a GB)

Oh, btw... that Suzuki Reno is going to sell like hotcakes, and there's probably going to be a huge aftermarket following for it. Party due to the fact that it's more mainstream looking and not so over the top like the Aerio is to some people. Anyway, if this is the case, what does the older gen Daewoos share in common with the Reno? You guys might get lucky!

ECU I Don't Think so

All this thing is, is a battery back up with a nice blue light. If your the type who wants endless amounts of modifications so your engine looks like it has every posssible part and upgrade even though it serves no purpose. I would just change the spark plugs if you have starting problems. This unit is like adding extra battery power thats it.
