homemade supercharger?
 

just wondering if anyone has thought about ------- around with a junkyard supercharger like one off of a mr2.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

some people did that on their 2nd gen rx7s. worked out pretty good. m90 is what they usually use on the fc.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

I was thinking about using an SC12 to boost my 4afe. It's a good supercharger, but only for about 10 psi. It still would have been badass. Might have to do it some day.

As long as you not talking honda because they turn counterclockwise so you supercharger would be a sweet vacume ;)

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

Spinning backwards they still make boost. Talk to Mista Bone about the AKSC. But yeah I've been thinking about a M60'd d-series, and later on an M90'd b-series. Should be fun.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

the air goes in between the rotors instead of around making shitty air, It would be like putting a sprint turbo on a b18c5 8)

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

There's a minivan that comes supercharged. Previa maybe? I heard those are good SC's to start with.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

MR2 = 4AGZE SC12 sc
PREVIA SC14

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

wasnt there a post with someone who had made one that could be turned on and off from a mercedes supercharger?on ebau i think

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

My buddy has a spare gm one off a 3.8, now I need a spare honda and spare money

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

i heard you can get 1 off a AE101 corolla ,cause i seen ppl puttin them on AE86 corollas and they're pretty good i hear but hard to find O0

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

not true, i've boosted 18 psi max on my sc12. and when you do...thing whines like crazy.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

The one on Ebay was the first AKSC that Tim designed. I'm working on the 5th generation design. The first 4 designs had a mojor flaw, the bolts that held the bracket to the AC mount would break. Mine will require a custom header.

FYI highroller54, 10 psi of boost is still 10 psi of boost. Able to be intercooled using a normal FMIC. You lose about 10% effeiciency spinning it backwards though.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

wow 10% I thought it would be more like 70% ??? Thats good to know, I am impressed 8)

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

you could just make some unit to spin it the correct way. out of some old cam gears and come crank pullys

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

Holy ----. 18?? I thought the seals and ---- were supposed to start failing at 15.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

hmt supercharger sounds cool. i would def try it

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

Powerdyne tried it, came up with 10-15% loss and major belt slippage due to the belt setup.

All Vortech needs to do, build a reverse setup and be done. To hell with the gokart shaft which Vortech "stole" from a SOHC setup a LONG time ago.

Oh yeah, were only at 11k blower rpm, not even close to the 14k safe rpm or 16k rpm critical rpm.

46 mpg or 10 psi of boost, just a flick of the switch away!

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

Bone,
Someone posted pics of a homemade SC setup with a magnetic clutch over on the Endyne boards a while back(when they were still all yellow). Was that the AKSC?

Do you have a link? I'm curious as to how it was put together.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

i've thought of this awhile back.. then i smoked a cigerrete and said ---- it ill just get a 60/63 ;D

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

that would be Tim who posted it over there LONG time ago.

The supercharger itself is a off the shelve unit. The bracket and the valve are the custom parts. With my bracket a custom header will be needed also.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

I don't care which way you turn the fucker, the air will NEVER go through the middle unless you have no seals.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

HAve you ever seen how a Eaton M case blower seals the lobes?

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

I've never had first hand experience with the SC12, but numerous people on Club4ag find that it's not a very efficient supercharger. How on earth did you get 18 psi out of it? Custom pulley? Most boost I've heard of was about 13-14 from a Cusco pully.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

I'm guessing either a Nevo (175mm) or a Diabolique (176mm) pulley and a later model SC12.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

Tommy AKSC del Sol on the dyno................

stock was 108 whp, AKSC on was 165 whp.........

running fat on 440 injectors, a very safe tuned for 7-8 psi non intercooled.

Re: homemade supercharger?
 

blitz crank pulley (cant remember what size) and an alternator pulley off a camry for the supercharger pulley. and i also disengaged the clutch mechanism and made it run all the time. it's not a very effiencient supercharger, true. but with the right flowing IC, it works dope. i used one of those isuzu NPR intercoolers.
