Supercharger System

Yes Tim, I remember a lot of work went into the various evolutions on Mikes car ... The kit looks good but guess nothing is as ever as simple as just bolting something on when it comes to forced induction ...

On a side note my hybrid turbo on my Celica has just given up the ghost this week - I did an inspection today and it's had it - so more money down the pit ... fortunately the oil plumes out the back are due to a worn thrust bearing and shaft and not engine damage ...

IIRC this kit made 384bhp with low comp pistons and aftermarket ECU. Not sure what else was done at that stage in terms of headwork etc.

Mike wanted more (500) and went pro-charger. This new setup then gave problems with the sequential box as the supercharger couldn't cope with the sudden rev change during flat shifts and after a number of warranty replacements he decided to go turbo. Again IIRC.
