Interest in Supercharger setup - Page 8

It goes down into a front mount in the bumper on his car and then down under the subframe and up in front of the transmission into the MAF and then throttle body.

Update: I recieved the new supercharger today that I'm planning on using. If the machine shop I'm using has time I'll be bring it to them tomorrow so we can finalize a bracket design and hopefully get things moving. I'll let you know when we have a finalized bracket design and pricing.

you have no idea how much i love you.....in a strictly plutonic way of course

FYI dont be apposed to cutting into the car a bit. I'll do what I can to avoid it but this is going to be a tight package.

i am patiently awaiting with sawzall and cutoff wheel inhand. got the plasma cutter in my back pocket.

PS are you done yet? j/k

Which supercharger are you using? s-trim, the procharger. or vortech one that you were talking about?

Again, I'm not hijacking, just seeing if these piccies help.

I figured out how I'm going to mount it. The piping will definately be going through the bumper for this kit. I can't aim the compressor any other way and get it to fit. I might need to instruct people to dent the sheet metal below so it sits as low as possible. Removal of the windshield washer tank and a different coolant tank is a must. Some cutting for the piping will be needed. I think I'll use a filter similar to the one above. I'll need to find a mass produced coolant tank that will work for this setup now. The one I made for the TK kit won't work. It's really close though.

What are people's ideas on a cog setup vs a ribbed belt? I was thinking a cog belt would mean less tension on the powersteering pump and I don't think we can get a 6 rib belt that is that short (25-30in.) anyway so a cog setup might be the only way to go.

Cutting isn't an issue... as long as you design it to work with an intercooler, and have pipe going the front way, we in business.

i'm curious as to what type of blower you plan on using? and would you have the compressor maps for the blower? I know the pulley size and ratios aren't figured in yet, but I just want to make my own double checking against the maps....

Teaser pictures of the compressor sitting in the spot it will be mounted...

That's where I'm planning on having the bracket position it. My predator hood shuts fine and I think that hood even sits lower because the vent scoops down right over it. Thoughts? Suggestions?
