i've had ideas of a super charge in front of the TB's but then thats just creating a restrictive inlet manifold so the TB's would just be in the way and a waist of money lol

I'm not entirely sure that would work particularly well with a roots charger!

Yep rotrex can work Smile

I've seen it somewhere but can't put my finger on where....

The best thing about supercharging is that it needs less electrical customisation than turbo'ing.

Almost doubling the power and I can still keep the standard ECU, right up to the limit of that charger which is about 310bhp.

Good to see Edward. Without wanting to sound harsh, but perhaps you may have been anticipating too much from the mods. Either way it looks great, and a very nice project for someone like me to read.


Looking at the reviews in both EVO and Cars and Car Conversions I expected the car to be great on the road but the cam choice obviously left the engine a little more peaky than expected.
I would like to think a little bit of the top end power could be sacrificed in order to gain more torque low down though by changing the cam timing.

Ah I'm sure some of it can be reclaimed yes, all completely dependant on the cams though I would guess! Though I'm not in the know on those specific ones.
