supercharger on a supra

Isphius · 12-25-2005, 05:59 PM

anyoen know of anyone thats supercharged a 7m motor? i think that would be a cool project loo...noone else has one of those. The vortech superchargers can produce quite a bit of boost....and then you dont need all the exhaust work and blow off valves etc associated with a turbo.

I perosonally have never seen a supercharged Supra. If you supercharge you will still need to upgrade your exhaust to get the most from that setup. A blow-off valve is still recommended with a supercharger and you might even have to upgrade the injectors as well. Adding a custom supercharger may seem simple but there is a lot involved in order to get the most from it as well as even getting it to run properly.

ive thought about boosting my NA this way. be pretty sweet i think. lil bump of power to a pretty powerful engine. would prob skip a ic to keep it simple, it is just a daily driver. ya just like a turbo, more air means more fuel so upgrading that wouldnt hurt any.

Doing a SC is the samething as doing a Turbo its just driven by the engine instead of the exhaust. If you are boosting and engine and shoving that air in there and cant get it out then where is it gonna go? I supercharged an Iroc and It has stock exhaust with flowmaster muffler and we were craming all that air in the engine and it wasnt coming out so it found somewhere else to go....the dipstick....blew it out with lots of oil.

cool turned the motor into a weapon, its like james bond or something

Isphius · 12-30-2005, 07:04 PM

i meant like....4 or 5 psi of boost. i dont think they can make much more than that, not from what ive seen anyway. instead of running a turbo, even if that s 4 or 5 psi, you still need to do all the piping work and oil returns and such. supercharger is just a bolt on item for keeping it low like that. no new manifolds or anything. i have another question thou. how do all of your vaccum accesories work with any kind of boost? like power brakes and all that. i know you could just put them infront of the boost adder but i never see anything like that included in the kits...

I have an 86.5 i was thinking about putting a centrifical supercharger for a mustang 5.0 on does anyone know if it might work ? I know that Ill have to go with bigger fuel injector and a walbro fuel pump not sure about anything else ? I have milled 25 thousands off my head and I already have headers

to anybody that think a supercharger is the pretty good at boosting
your wrong

i saw a research between superchargers and turbos
and turbo won by a mile
the psi diffrence from 8 - 10
even the dependability not even close
so i wouldnt waste my money trying to customize and inferior system for my car

pple might say it will be cheaper it will be less trouble
so what? whats the point of spending money customizing a bunch of things for your and it cant even show what your car is really made of
or tap the hidden power of your engine

You will probably spend thousands trying to get the fuel injection right.
