Supercharger is fun, just that the air sucked is hot air since no way to slid an intercooler between supercharger and combustion chamber

If really want to go for SC way, invest addon in water/methanol injector to cooled down the sucked air before the combustion chamber.

This water/methanol injector you can get by AEM or Works brand, but you must change/add the solenoid valve from big Aquarium filtering parts to prevent the water/methanol drips when not in use.

The injector will follow the tuning of the ECU for only certain RPM/Load then it will squirt the mist

this you need to have stand alone ECU..

Is all down to the type of supercharger.
You still can have an intercooler with those centrifugal type.
Or a intake manifold with integrated intercooler, basically 2 in 1.

Agreed, however those centrifugal type of supercharger its tricky to installed, but for those intercooler sandwiched in between intake and charger, the effect would not be efficient unlike those turbo intercooler.

Perhaps with unlimited fund... might able too..

the reason why I look into sc is because am not looking for extreme amount of power, and it appears simpler to install and tune. And if I choose to uninstall it, I could sell it to others without a dozen pipings, at leadpst that's my assumption. It does have its short comings and unique problem, like aligning the belt and intricate stuff like that.

I love turbo, because of its simplicity in design and not parasitic on the engine crank, it's just using exhaust gas to power itself. But I still prefer the linear feel of the sc, which is easier on me as a driver. Most turbo car are great on straights, but are scary to push around corners, what I wanted was predictability.

Looks like proreka is the only shop that does sc. Any other good shops that does sc? Ones that hopefully does good work.

I have sprintex installed in my Exora... so I know .. if your car Manual setup go ahead, if you have Auto car, invest your money elsewhere..

Ehhh why auto car invest elsewhere? Hmm i tot cvt gear should fit supercharger well as sc gives instant power from low rpm to high rpm?

I newbies tolong ajar cry.gif

I tot sc easy pasang sc no need cool air sucked in sweat.gif

My exora is old CPS N/A setup with 4 speed slushbox Mitsu Sourced Invecs II autobox.. not the CVT from Punch installed on those new Exora bold with CFE turbo engine.

No matter how powerful your engine setup after put the supercharger, the gearbox can't cope unless someone change the ratio and re-tune the autobox TCU in which the piggiback/standalone ECU that comes with your supercharger kit can't touch..

Hmm

Just wanna increase 40hp 50nm like that...need touch the tcu?

Those engine tuners shud be able to do that aite?

Can, with a cost of your Kidney.. smile.gif because the current Factory setup TCU not designed to handle such increase in Torque and HP, there will be an awkward moment when the gearbox don't know which gear should shifted to.. and its often happen you feel false neutral when trying to floor the gas..
