Centrifugal Supercharger Questions
If someone were to be in the market to buy a centrifugal supercharger for a 928, what would they be looking for? Clockwise or counter clockwise rotation? Any particular sizes or brands that are best?
Another question that is in the same realm. When boosting an L-Jet car, are you guys relocating the AFM (barn door) so that the system is a draw through? It seems to me that it would be the way to do it but I don't know squat .
What is done when you boost a K-Jet system?

Dude... you need to go to Green Bay! Really. Enzo-Pschorr has this all figured out.
I think you need to leave the barn-door in order to facilitate off-boost driving. After that it's pretty much all managed by the SCer pulley size and the FMU.
BTW, I recommnd the ultra-rare "clockwide" SCer!

I am refering to relocating the AFM not eliminating it.
Clockwide is now fixed

I'm not sure I understand the question. In the middle pretty much. How does that change the rotation? Wouldn't the pully spin in the same direction no matter if it were mounted to the left or right of the crank pully? Maybe I am missing something here.

They can be mounted with the pulley mounted either towards the front of the car or towards the back. The rotation direction will depend on which way.

Fabio,
What is your game plan here? Buying a kit or making your own from scratch?
Murf site: murf928.com (hopefully will be updated shortly).

Thanks Andrew.
Hacker, I am thinking of buying components such as a bracket and fans from Tim or Carl and making the rest. My plan may change before I pull the trigger but I am hoping to use an A/A intercooler for simplicity's sake. I also have access to a fast bracket and pully along with a vortech S/C to play with. This was generously offered from a friend and would only be for me to play with and tweak. Eventually I would need a bracket, SC, and pully.
