Hi everyone
i was looking into getting a supercharger conversion for my car. i've tuned and rebuilt turbo engines before but i know very little about superchargers. i'd appreciate it if somebody could help me out??
what sort of boost do they run?
how is the boost controlled? (electronic / mechanical?)
do they need the stuff turbos do, i.e. intercoolers, dump valves, etc.
do internals need to be changed? (lower compression, larger injectors?)
does ecu need remapping?
oil and coolant pipes?
New manifolds needed?
where is the majority of the gained torque, low, medium or high revs?
power gains for 1G-FE? (dyno results would be helpful, thanks)
what's max torque for manual gearbox?
Clutch upgrade?
any feedback or critisisms would be helpful! photos or documents of projects would be cool too. (n.b. turbo / engine conversion not an option for me due to insurance company restrictions)
Thanks
