Imagine the advertising campaign:

Hymen Superchargers, Bust that cherry with a twin screw!

LOL!

cool now that I'm updated on this thread and you mentioned a possibility of auto, I'm now officially hopping into this thread..

Is that a good thing? :D j/k ;)

When I said "given an appropriate intake manifold and tuning"... That is a pretty open statement I guess.

My European distributor is really keen on getting one for his auto though. There seems to be a bit of interest, so lets see how it goes. Dont forget we need to first get the thing running!

Cheers,
Hymee.

Mine is indeed a Standard Power but not an Auto Trans! It's 5MT. But the baseline is correct.

Oops - Sorry, my bad. http://www.hymee.com/smilies/sm_nutkick.gif :eek:

Silly question.. Is it possible to start out with like 20 psi and gradually drop the boost up til redline?

High boost at lower rpms needs less fuel and generate less heat than the same boost at higher rpm. Hence you could get some insane lowend gains without compromising the engine at higher rpms..

(my understanding is that a twin-screw sc is able to produce a lot of boost at low rpm)

IF its possible to somehow gear it to do that, I would think you would get really massive wheelspin off the line. You're probably already going to get some of that with it using a conventional flat boost curve.

Assuming you would have 250hps at the wheels at launch. There is a bunch of cars out there with that allready.

there are always going be faster cars, regardless. Its an improvement nonetheless from the car's stock numbers. If you want a fast ride man... just get urself a sport bike.

It can't hold 4 people that well. Yep, looks like it's going back.

Racer X-8 02-02-2005 03:38 PM

robertdot 02-15-2005 08:37 PM

Hey, hymee... I had a thought...

I went back and took a look at the SC fitting photos. How bad is it going to be to change the oil after the SC is installed?
