anything will work on anything....if you have the time, money, motivation, and skill to make it happen.

you have to do some research on this. find out what kind of supercharger it is. then go on some gtp forums and find some relevant info such as the airflow, and possible hp out of that supercharger. after that you would have a hell lots of fun fabricating parts to make it fit and work.

have fun.

I believe those Grand Prix models (which are littering the streets here in Indiana) utilize an Eaton M90 supercharger, which Scotturnot and Twizted have in their SC400's right now. I am not sure how it would have to be adapted to fit properly, but I am almost sure the supercharger itself is a viable option.

I have a member with a M112 is making 290 rwhp with 9 psi and running at 11 seconds. M112 is a great charger and plenty of boost for reserve.

Yeah anything possible but must not be in a sc is it? Because 290rwhp in 3400ib car 11's doesn't seem to equate... I have a m112 kit i bought from lextreme and was going to run 12psi to start and wasn't calculating that good of a pass time. I was going to go with another setup but maybe I wont if those happens to not sell on ebay. Lextreme please confirm model the 1uz is in because i know you have guys over there putting them in different cars...

Here is the thread 11s 1uzfe with M112 There are lots of M90 running on the 1uzfe and recently the M112 is the charger of choice. It has more boost then the stock engine can handle.

Well lextreme built it! So quality is A1! and the manifold is richwood which is what everyone is running. Your comment upsets me because the kit is of the utmost quality and your basically saying something bad about one of the most respected members of this board. Check out www.lextreme.com some time if you would like to see quality!
