:D:D:D:D

Yeah, just as soon as the truckload of poly-V belts and pulleys arrives ;)

Cheers,
Hymee.

Good news, ya boostard. :)

Fun times are brewing down under...

Few Questions,
1) Was it on a dyno?
2) In general how did it run?

Fantastic work Hymee. The setup looks amazing, (a bit blurry tho) ;-) Can't wait to send cash your way :D

WOW! very nice that it's hidden. looks very close to the ABS box.
post a dyno curve of the lower rpm's as a teaser please :D

Congrats, this is going to be awesome!

I spoke to Hymee just after he posted about the turn of the key. That was midnight here local time. He posted those photo's at 5am. I'm tipping he is pretty tired. He said he has booked dyno time for today.....so stay tuned for some sleep deprived posts later in the day. It's 11am now.

time to make a"hymee gets supercharged part III"?:D

What a trooper. :)

Get ur a$$ outa bed Hymee!!! :D

edit: !!! WOOT !!!

Hymee's ass was never in bed ;) ... I think maybe he got an hour or two's sleep in the passenger seat of the car :eek: and is busy working away at the moment. News will be posted when it is available.

Go Hymee...You rock!

Andrew

Nice to see you're truly dedicated to this project Hymee. :) I'm sure the results will be awesome, as I'd expect nothing less from Sir Hymee. Thanks for keeping us entertained with this thread and I wish you the best of luck with the finishing of your project. :)

Good one Hymee!

As always you have kept your promise and have made a lot of us very excited to hear the news!

Joe

Sweet!!! Can't wait for the results!

so the car wont be going to the jambo this year then?

Well, only Hymee can say but I think his plan was for it to be at the jambo as as static display, then we'll see/hear/feel it in action at the Nats. Come on EZZY, it's gotta be worth more than a weekend with your g/f ! ;) :p

The Jambo is still on tomorrow.

We re-engineered the blower drive to get a much more satisfactory result with a poly-v belt. Mint! We are quite happy about things now. About to take her out for a road tune. :D

Cheers,
Hymee.

Drivers seat actually. I had to play footsies wit the pedals. I don't think it was much sleep, as Phil had the music cranked up heaps to keep him awake as he machined up a new gearbox adaptor plate for Andrew Dyson's race car.

Cheers,
Hymee.

damn it is almost 3am here I can't fall asleep now...u better post some more M :D

OK. I'm gunn apost some pics of the new blower drive we machined up today.
