Supercharged Owners

[Rob]

Ho all,

Ok i have a little request for those of you that have the supercharger fitted -

I have had the feeling that mine isnt running as well as it could be for a while so........ could someone do a little test pls?

what i am after is someone to drive in 3rd at 3000rpm ( should be just below 40mph) then accelerate up to 60mph but i need the time taken between 40ish and 60mph - is that possible for someone to do???

answers below please.

cheers rob.

beer tokens available at JAE :winky: :winky:

EDIT: CAN SOMEONE with a standard car also do tha same as the above please???

you changed your pre-cats yet Robert

i borrowed the boroscope from work and had a peek - they are in 100% A1 condition, in fact they look brand new, (we have some at work exactly the same)

but did notice when fitting the SC back that there was small hole in the manifold that comes off the supercharger on a casting point - got that welded today and i have cheked all the pipes also, have not checked the plugs though.

From 3krpm in 3rd to 60mph still in 3rd took about 4.5 secs.

Did it several times and was the same give or take a tenth or 2.

Any help ??

I'm decatted so prob not much use...

You got a boost guage ? That will tell if somethings awry

Hi Tony,

many thanks for the timings etc, ( no one else seems to have bothered ;) ) i am getting about 5 ish seconds, so there is room for improvement somewhere - check plugs next.

Dave, can u check also for me pls? doesnt matter if the precats are out.

no boost guage - dont want to look "boy racer esque"(sp?)

cheers rob

[TonyGoose]

Ooh, wait a sec Rob ...

I have a 'no pre-cat' manifold, tte zorst + K+N filter.

Should have mentioned that before i guess

On that basis, you're probably not too far off the mark

[Rob]

hi tony,

my exhaust has been modded also, im not sure what diff the airfilter/precats will make though - ok all I need now is someone that has a supercharger WITH pre cats fitted still - ANY OFFERS??????

Started to think there was something wrong with the Tezza, when it took 7 secs!
