A buddy of mine has a connection with ProCharger and was just talking about a good deal he can get on a universal Sport Compact supercharger kit. Got me thinking about if it was possible to adapt this kit to my EJ25 and if it would be worth it. I'm not a big fan of Turbo setups but a supercharger might be a viable option.
Someone slap me in the face with an obvious reason this has not been done yet... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) |

I've been thinking about doing this too.... The only reason I can come up with is that the EJ25 is fairly high compression to start with. But there must be something to do about that.
If you look on Nasioc therea re a number of Supercharger kits avaialble. I haven't researched them a LOT but there are a bunch of people trying out different stuff. Its potentially a very very cheap way to get more power. Supercharger, intercooler and programable ECU are the major components, most of which can be gotten cheap (used charger, megasquirt, etc.) -Tony |
