[s-cars] Re: HKS EVC V

[James Bowes]

Just got a little curious as to what your were talking about, looked up the 
HKS EVC V online. Looks like one hell of a nice upgrade. How exactly does it 
work? it mentions that it uses some kind of stepping motor. Is this motor 
doing something similar to how it's possible to change the boost pressure by 
cranking down on an aftermarket BPV? If so, does this motor simply mount to 
a user-supplied BPV?

Just curious... slippery slope ahead!

Thx

James
