So after a lot of turbo and supercharger research and found quite a few easy belt driven turbos, if you don't have power steering pump or ac pump, i don't see why you wouldn't be able to make a bracket for it, it doesn't require oil, at least the one i would buy, no cooler needed, no blow off valves, i assume they say to get it tuned and your good, anyone got any theory's or ideas?
sc14 (Y)
what about any belt driven turbine device that can push say 6psi at full throttle?Quote:

The blow off valve is needed so when you at full boost and u let off the throttle the 10psi of boost needs to go somewhere and the blow off valve releases it so it doesn't go back thru the turbo and slow down the spool.
thats why i said (supercharger) and of course you need a bov, an air cooler would be the shhhit, fuel pressure regulator will be needed and if you can get the right about needed turning up the regulator no need for injectors, but if your doing all that might as well.. and a good tune.. was just stating anyone know of anyone or ideas? thanks all for any posts!Quote:

as well as the sc12. and the procharger, V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger.. i could name thousands.. has this been done before on our generation engines?Quote:

There's some room below the intake manifold, but you're limited as to how far you can go over to the side to line up the belt.
i got no ac or power steering pumps so two locations available. but is it a decent idea? all you need is a bov, waste gate, a few other mods, a tune and if you want you can buy a air cooler but i can make one for cheaper.. any more ideas or opinions?Quote:

should probably grab every single part damn near on the previa for the supercharge than?Quote:

dont see why not if everything fits and the pulleys line up without anything else getting in the way
your stumbling across something here that i have been looking into with the parts i have. Only downfall about a supercharger, it takes power to make power. Although the benefit of the super charger is more or less a linear response curve compared to a turbo, but the expense is bottom end power used to drive it. This is where the turbo's shine, they hardly rob any power.
BTW SKY mentioned about the placement of a SC where the AC compressor is. This would be a great spot , however i have been playing with a different setup that would require the B16/18 intake manifold swap and would turn itself into a SC and would be able to retain all the creature comforts like the AC.
actual well put together turbo setups make more power hands down. Their efficiency cant be beat by superchargers, plus superchargers are more of a headache in these cars. If you wanna go fast you really should go turbo.
fast? how many supercharger 1989 honda accord a20a3s do you see rolling down the road?Quote:

If you really want to go fast, turbo is the way to go hands down. Ever wonder why Formula 1 cars used turbos and not superchargers? Because turbos are that much more efficient! They made soo much power they were restricted and subsequently banned because the cars were becoming too fast.
big plans here for a AC pwr inverter and a elec leaf blower converted to super charger.. or... alcohol powered 25cc water cooled weed eater powered turbine rc powered servos for valving, laptop monitoring and event controls. For the engine Holley w supercharger sealed intake and megajolt ign... plumbing still an issue just like these others. May have to give up the passenger seats, who would sit there anyway lol
am I serious? one has to wonder. lol

get er done. shut us all up, and prove how much power you can get out of it.
all i had asked was it possible and have people done it. i never asked about a turbo motor beating a non turbo motor, but thanks for the info on a turbo'd a20a3 beating a stock b16. and that formula 1 cars run turbo set ups and not a belt driven turbo(supercharger) and that turbos are more effcient! and that the cars became too fast. thanks!Quote:

a stock b16 runs 12s? is there not a guy who did the swap and has his quarter mile time?
someone just lock this thread. please.
:facepalm:
just to be nice, I'll tell you. Ryan has a b16 in his 2g lude, little lighter, with full bolt ons; and his car runs 15s...
