Here is the bottom of the IHI S/C.
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...c0020abe9a.jpg There are two oil compartments for the front bearings/gears and rear bearings each with a feed and return hole. On the mazda, these are fed by thin engine oil, and those guys complain about it leaking out of seals and getting gunked up. Whether I plumb to engine oil or seal off and make an internal bath of S/C oil, I need to figure out what fittings I can shove in here. I didn't grab the lower bracket from the junkyard, but here's what it looks like (the IHI just sits on top) https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...8e6fe39456.jpg Here are some up close pictures of the holes: https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...46a82ce2f0.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...fed5106924.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...b872281b0b.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...0498ab0293.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...4946ed5ae8.jpg Can any of you identify what fittings I need to plumb or seal these, and where I might find them? |
first thought would be to yank out the brass tubes and see about tapping the case for NPT brass.
...or get somebody to braze some fittings onto those existing nubs. |
VEMS + SC + Nitrous
So I just go my VEMS PNP from Peep, and it got me thinking again (dangerous).
How about low boost SC + low shot N2O + no intercooler? As I get older complexity of projects is a turn-off. Was thinking of a low shot Wet N2O system instead of the SC initially. |
do some research if pre-SC or post-SC injection is better.
that stuff comes out cold and does some "intercooling" on its own. pre might keep the rotors cooler which might help general efficiency? but post would help take the heat out of the charge. both :evilgrin: |
update i guess...
last weekend i finished welding my intake manifold and primed it. yes, it's got stacks inside, about 10" from stack entrance to valve seat, and the D plenum is big enough to roll a tennis ball through. about 0.75x displacement for plenum volume. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...fe1c71c64a.jpg .. .. yesterday i was making new brackets to mount my AC condenser and intercooler, so i can then start "laying pipe" (plumbing the IC). light at the end of the tunnel... |
thanks for the update!

Looking good Spencer!

Comes with DME(Rogue) with tuner and logger. Rogue NA-Tune with custom stainless MAF tube Eaton M90 https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...ac74574546.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...6af0b55e7f.jpg Top view of where the SC was fit. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...e363920050.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...fd9f11e2cb.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...5e5ea6f077.jpg SC Mounting bracket Intercooler and piping and much much more. Its a great way to get started, most of the hard work is done. around the $1700 range for everything. |
My current plan, in order to avoid yet another custom elbow and vacuum connections, has the supercharger going pretty far back. It fits ok, except it's going right through where the dipstick needs to go. Has anyone had any success bending or otherwise relocating the dipstick?

Thought I might show some progress photos of my S2 SC build, I'm using a Rotrex C30-94, with 100mm pulley, giving about 5-6PSI, No intercooler but a modified oil coole cylinder tyo cool down the Bypassed air which gets heated by the SC then gets diverted to in front of the SC, therefore a potential builup of heat can occur,
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...0ad2d43c70.jpg The SC ann Nissan Quest alternator are coupled together and both hang off the factory alternator mounting points, the SC has a front and back mounting brackets made out of 6mm Aluminium (tried to find Aluminum here in Oz but couldn't find it) the effect is a rock solid setup https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...fa687dcd2e.jpg Stock alternator https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...a255d006e8.jpg Space https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...8cde1e7b78.jpg Some shaving of the alternator was needed https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...736f83e734.jpg With the AFM in place |
very clever!

Can you put a turbo in a 1983 Porsche 944
Can you do this to a regular 944, and what would it cost?
