supercharger on a supra - Page 2

Isphius · 08-11-2006, 12:04 AM

And whats nice about the roots stlye blowers is they are making boost as soon as the engine spins. So from idle you have boost. They just arent good for high boost and high rpms.

im trying to decide on supercharger vs turbocharger and i know that in the long run a turbo would be better, but im more into street racing where i need that initial kick of a supercharger to get going off that red light whereas a turbo has lag involved. what to do?! if anyone can throw me some estimates in pricing for a turbo and sc id appreciate it. 1989 5 speed

the 550cc stock injectors should be fine... i wouldnt change them unless u really have to... just because its more $ outta your pocket for probably nothing atall, maybe more fuel loss thats aka lil boost but prob not worth it in the end.

frostburn · 08-07-2006, 06:40 PM

one of my auto buddies is in the process of putting a supercharger and a turbo in his camaro ... ill let ya'll know how that works out... cuz im still clueless on the idea

This is an old post haha.....Supran2r, You were probably reading about centrifugal superchargers. They do suck on paper, and reliability, But you have to ride in a car with one

. Thatll change your mind. The reason they suck is because it is basically a turbo, Designed to spin at a certain RPM which is reach fast by the turbo and then kept by the wastegate. The cent. style has to run at the speed of the motor, So it is only at its peak efficiency for a short time unlike a turbo. But this is very very fun

haha. But anyway, I was thinking of using a roots style blower. Like the eaton m61 from a clk230/lots of other cars, Or the eaton ones that came on the SC 3.8 v6s in buicks and pontiacs. On the already pretty powerful 7m motor, It would probably mnake about 290-300 hp. Anywhere from about 1900 rpms and up. Roots style blowers make power from idle all the way up, They just have limited ammounts of boost at high rpms. Look at top fuel dragsters. They make 8000 hp with roots style blowers on 1000 ish cubic inch motors. Tell your SC vs turbo article to eat that. lol. Thats 16.6 liters... thats like 480 hp per liter. They also run 4 sec quater miles and go 320 mph with one gear and a gokart style clutch(a really big one).

i have been in somewhat a lot of cars with sc's
a 93 mustang
92 buick
89 camaro
theyre fast im not arguing that
but on the high-end side of power
its not even close
a lot of pple will disagree
but i want a 10 second car and a supercharger cant give me that

86 supra · 08-08-2006, 05:14 AM

the stock 86.5 fuel injector size is 550cc?? i have heard that they were 295cc I think that a custom supercharger on a supra is alot better then just dropping in a 7mgte. Theres nothing better then doing something that nobody else has seen. I think that a vortech centrifical will work well,just have to fab some brakets and intake pipes
