[quote name='little rotary 14' date='May 20 2005, 03:29 PM']cgeek is right if he wants to sc his na i say go for it. Who cares if its a little less efficiant. its his car. its improves his hp. its unique and so far it seems like it would work alright. at least hes spending money on his engine and not for ricer body parts. Make one hell of a sleeper.

Thanks, ricers drive me nuts, i would way rather have performance in a sleeper than have a car that looks like a billion other hondas.

So ud need the SC, somewhere to mount it, drive belts and another pulley on the engine, intake modification to connect it, a bigger fuel pump and bigger injectors... am i missing anything?

The package i saw came with everything you need to raise the fuel and the belt drives and mounting brackets and everything.

just search on google, not hard to find.

the price might make you think twice though. if i remember correctly the kits go for about 5500USD. of course this includes everything you'll need to make it bolt-on and run...but at 5500USD....i dont know, i wouldn't do it. but that's just me..and i already have a turbo so...

drftk1d 05-23-2005 12:26 PM

$5500 could buy you a Turbo II

The EFI set-up is $3300, a carbureted set-up is less then the EFI.

They used to have BMW mini superchargers on ebay for £170, they were the roots type though.

Incorrect. You're still compressing the air so you're still heating it up. The intercooler would allow you to run more boost without detonating.

toplessFC3Sman 05-24-2005 11:57 PM

true, but its not being heated nearly as much as in a turbo, when its running right next to the exhaust gasses, thru a turbo that has just been heated up by the exhaust. It wouldnt hurt, but wouldnt be necessary for the same amount of boost
