Anyone done a TPC supercharger conversion?
Hi,
I am in the process of installing a TPC eaton 90 blower with digital controller on my 90 C2. SO far the new inlet manifold is installed and the blower is ready to mount. Problems so far, had to relocate fuel pressure reg and remove brace bar from oil pressure sensor idiot light housing to AC bracket to facilitate manifold installation.
Would like to chat with someone who has done this before to talk about oiltank / crankcase hose routing options etc. Electronics, crank pulley etc will go on tommorrow. Thanks. <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

The closest I can think of is "Cecil" on the 993 board. He has a TPC supercharger in his '97. Unfortunately, many differences between a '97 and '90 ... but also many similarities, I'm sure.
Here's one of several threads on Cecil's supercharged 993:

Look forward to hearing more updates on your supercharger installation!

Everything is on. All fuel vent recirculation and brake booster / vaccum piping has been sorted, blower, pulley, tensioner fitted. It takes a LONG time to get all this stuff done. Will modify tail and finish electronics tommorrow. Had to fab a lot of ancillary brackets etc. New throttle body should be coming Monday (TPC forgot to ship this first time around, the 90 C2's need the later throttle body). So far so good, should get it fired up Moday. Will keep you all posted. Can't wait to feel what 380hp/360Nm feels like!!
