Press Release Summary: Leading turbocharger specialists, Turbo Dynamics are already
renowned for taking giant leaps forward within the industry and for developing
revolutionary ideas. Now, having done their research and conducted tests, they have
taken yet another step forward and officially joined forces with ceramic coating
experts: Zircotec.

Press Release Body: Becoming an official Zircotec Re-seller means that Dorset based,
Turbo Dynamics can now offer the general public proven Formula One technology!

Professionals within the racing industry demand only the very best technology for
their cars in order to be able to compete to win. So when it comes to the turbos
under their car bonnets, they need 100% efficiency, reliability and maximum
performance. Any extra weight will have an impact on a car's performance so
everything has to be considered with great care. In order to meet these requirements
Formula One and motorsport teams alike have been using ceramic coating in their
vehicles over the last 20 years.

The exceptionally high performance ceramic thermal barrier provided is compact,
lightweight and more durable than any of the other available technologies in today's
market. Incredibly it reduces and can even eliminate fuel vaporisation, enhances
reliability through reduced under-bonnet temperatures, reduces turbo spin-up time by
keeping the inlet hot, protects heat sensitive components and improves packaging and
airflow by eliminating thermal wrap.

The biggest benefit however, is that by reducing the air intake temperature, ceramic
coating increases engine performance. The thermal barriers have been proven to
reduce under bonnet temperatures by up to 30C and these improvements - resulting in
lowered air intake temperatures - can consequently give power improvements of up to
6%!

Importantly for motorsport drivers, ceramic coating improves safety by lowering the
risk of a fire and also helps drivers to remain alert by reducing cockpit
temperatures.

The amazing and proven technology can not only be applied to Formula One cars, but
also to road cars and motorbikes. Turbo Dynamics offer ceramic coating for a variety
of vehicle components, adding to their already comprehensive list of services:
ceramic coating for turbocharger components, manifolds, exhaust headers, exhaust
down pipes, wastegates and more! A list of all the services currently offered by
Turbo Dynamics can be viewed at: www.turbodynamics.co.uk/services.htm.

Turbo Dynamics Managing Director, Peter Marsh said "I am delighted that we can now
offer this amazing technology and service to our customers. The results we've had
from our tests are outstanding. Ceramic coating turbos makes them more efficient due
to reduced heat loss, reduces fuel consumption and gives that all important extra
horsepower."

This development is also highly welcomed by environmentalists. With Global Warming
now an issue sternly on the agenda, all efforts to be 'greener' and look after the
environment are encouraged. So, with heat transfer from exhausts being one of the
most damaging environmental factors caused by cars and motorbikes, the introduction
of ceramic coating is a breakthrough.
