Thats a tidy car you have there m8
Thanks for the info - its looking like it could be quite an easy conversion after all. The charger is off a BMW Mini Cooper S - but is totally unmolested - and in the same condition that youd buy one from eaton in.
A couple of my mates are precision engineers, so im sure that they will help me get it all lined up. Im glad you mentioned the MAF/CHIP/INJECTORS, as tbh i see these as being my only major concern. I have noted your points on the intake manifold design - but im hoping to take advantage of the fact that its forced induction - hence it wont need to be perfect to work, although i may modify the design to improve gas flow once i can get some computer simulations running.
hmmm fluid dynamics
What boost are you running at? Have you changed your pulley size, or did you just use the one suppluied in the kit?
And on a seperate note: What do you reacon the chances are of connecting the electro-magnetic clutch off an air-con unit to the supercharger - allonging me to turn the supercharger on/off at will (for those moments when you dont want to let the idiot in the lane next to you know that your boosted) - a possibility? And is there any technical reason why a dump valve woulnt work on a s/c car.
Cheers
