General Supercharger Thread

This is a video on the e85 kit I got for the BMW but asked to return as the standalone can do it, they sent me the Sequoia harness free.

Also, today it's we're buttoning it up, we ran it but had forgotten to connect the exhaust, it was noisy.

Not confidence inspiring.

Well...I am
@snivilous texted me yesterday if I'd be down for a 1.88 pulley, smallest he can go. Of course! I do have to get a spare engine lined up. There are a few locally. Should be about an extra 2.5psi. Which will bring me to about 16-17psi.
I have the exhaust free flowing with only a resonator in place of the cats. Could go 5 inch intake from the 4.5 inch. But then the 95mm TB and 1900 snout are the bottleneck but fastlane showed the 1900 can be pushed a bit. The W/M should cool the rotors and intake air from the 1900 becoming a heat pump as its set to spray 100% at 8psi.
All the builds are inspiring!

 

Yes! I'll probably run 12psi-15psi which is plenty for what I need in the dirt. Sticking with smaller upper and keeping an eye on belt slip before thinking of adding a lower etc

 

8 sec 0-60...hmm not too many e85 around me.
Maybe the shop wanted to see how free flowing exhaust would perform?

 

I thought with the larger 6.7inch crank I'd do a bit more. Thought my rotors were worn but they were pretty decent with no wear and could feel air with just a hand spin. I know real scientific. But for the most part 15psi seems pretty good. Bet on the Whipple it'll move some air!

 

This is what I'm interested in. Volume at those pressures and what the motor is built for/can handle. I assume 20psi will be my max, ever, but IDK. I also assume I'll electronically control to 15 or less, but again, IDK... Yet.

I am curious to see where Rey ends up since I (with zero proof) believe our power adders are comparable.

 

I’ve done many builds like this and turbos. Boost for boost your turbo will absolutely make more power once you turn that wick up. Now how they’ll compare at 15psi should be interesting but you should still make some steam for sure. 20+psi yours would be making significant power

 

PSI for PSI yours should be more powerful since the SC takes power to spin it...20PSI should be a blast!

 

Yep- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4OHdC3nAFk

 

I’m curious to see how much boost the stock intake manifold can take if you’re going 15+. Maybe you have plans to go metal for the manifold down the line? 20psi sounds crazy! I like it.

 

@bflooks billet one piece intake manifold when?

 

Gotta love functional art!

 

Make the Intake manifold in the likeness of a whipple

keep em guessing

 

I'd be a liar if I said I haven't already contacted Rogue about it. Little did I realize, y'all know who it was created for. Calling @BRX to thank him! Oh! And based on his thread, the issues are realized much lower than I thought.

I almost needed clean pants after putting 2 + 2 together.

Design and quote me.

 

Runner length on Vortech is interesting. When I spoke with FI interchillers they said Delrin runners would be beneficial but not necessary if other options were utilized to control heat. I mentioned going 100% water injection and they said I should really try it and compare timing and temps. Need to get a iac probe on the SC

 

IF I can keep a plan together over the next few years, then a trans swap will be in the cards and I'll shoot for the moon. Regardless, why not build it for the moon journey and then dial it back? That's what today's decision was.

 

Oh yeah! Blast from the past. Learned a lot back then...

 

They called at 2 asking about the SC coolant fill, sounds like they are ready to go?

NO!

Who needs batteries????

 

Just called, said he started it & 3 injectors are leaking, need O rings, but no battery?

 

Huh. I've pulled my injectors quite a few times without issue. Just seems odd. Maybe they disconnected the interface to track...

 

Yeah, the O rings were new in December & the interface is part of the remote start, hardwired in with a sim & connected behind the OBD2. Hard to believe either scenario.

 

45mins is just down the road in Texas terms. Guarantee I could find an excuse to be in the area if I was you.

 

Problem is if I go there I'll have a hard time quietly explaining why I know they are full of shit.

 

Be honest. You were in the area and thought you’d drop by and check in and get a better idea of what the status is because the updates aren’t making sense and so you wanted to talk to someone in person.

 

I don't think there's anything weird about just showing up. It's your truck. "Hey I was in the area passing by and figured I'd drop in and see how the ole girl is coming along". Nothing weird about that at all imo

 

But what about the batteries

 

I was just giving you a hard time as its weird about the location device since it's tied to the batt etc.

 

Driving around town with 5 stop lights before I hit costco and a few other places. E-fan only came on twice when temp hit 195. Driving was a good 7-10 deg cooler, cruising was at 186deg, than usual comparing similar logs and air temp around 86 deg. It is a smaller louver, 140sqin vs 200sqin, but I only wanted it above the rad-fan and not go up to the SC area. I'm thinking maybe side vents too. But will wait on that. You could see the engine heat waves rise out of the louver. I'm happy with the install.
