Damn thats a loot of working out.

Can you not just (if you know it) go off the speed of the standard Supercharger with the 130mm pulley and then work out the difference with the 160?

Stav

dont know the speed of the standard set up otherwise it would be easy - from what i remember the drive goes thru a total of 3 sets of pullys so its 3 sets of equations.... not too much really once the pulley sizes are known. i know the sizes of the SC and the water pump drive pulley - just need the rest

No need for a bigger fuel rail. Standard rail is fine plus its already got a thread on the end to fit the return line to.

Well just going to see what its like putting ecu and injectors in for now.

Pistons + rods came from the US mate.

You can use the return line, with standard injectors and ecu, but i have the injectors, so im going to try that way 1st mate.

Hi there Gord,

How are you and the guys doing over there.

I just had a quick scan through this thread. Is it right you have my old car now, and your planning to run 300bhp ?

Can you post up some pictures of it ? The last i heard, it was in the Sunderland area, but i haven't seen it since i chopped it in for the GTR.

Posted

Yes Duncan, Gord does have your car now.

And he's treating it very well. Got some Gorgeous shoes on it now from America.

I'm sure he'll put you some pics up soon.
