Peter posted this about supercharging...great collection of links

- no water injection
- 5 psi
saw extra 80 rwhp

Jim Roal's homepage - lots of supercharger advice. It will take some time to read it all.

Supercharger FAQ - gold!

You can't tune up an SC - change plugs and filters and oil, troubleshoot and parts change for fault.

Supercharge FAQ from Allen engineering. EG why an smaller M90 rather than the larger M112 ?
Wish there was a kit like this for the SC - cheap too.

A look at intercooling for the M90 - won't fit under the SC bonnet (you guys call it the hood?, we say boot and you say trunk - I know there is a million other things we say differently too!)

I though this was interesting - looking at getting more flow from an M90.

http://www.boosthead.com/probemazda.html
quote:
I recommend the Eaton SC supercharger system for automatic trans cars, as it gives instant boost. The MX6 and 626 have less clearance for the driveshaft system used on the Vortech/Paxton kits, so the Eaton or SSST is preferred for them. The Vortech/Paxton superchargers and SSST turbo are better suited for the Probe GT 5-speed cars, although an Eaton SC can be used. The Probe requires minor A/C dryer mods for the Eaton to fit. The turbo will make more power at extremely high boost levels--above 15 psi--but up to that point both SC and turbo work equally well.

Nothing to do with an SC but still interesting.

Andy is using a Terracharger - an Eaton M90 made under licence in Australia - I have only heard good things about them. Kit includes a bypass valve. Terra charger is easier to mount with through bolts.
I hope to have a prototype kit end of March - will get it polished up first I think.
The Eaton on an SC gives same peak power as mild LS1 5.7 litre engine with more torque off the line.
I'm tempted to up the boost and water inject mine - see what can get out of it.
Andy is more the careful long term reliability sort of bloke - he is more concerned about detonation and having a reliable liveable daily driver.

Although my site is mostly about the 2.5 Twin Turbo Soarer there is a lot of stuff which applies to working on the V8/SC300/400 models like front suspension bushes, wiring diags, air con diags, Fuel pump ECU, V8 cam belt change, etc.
