Supercharged Mk2 Ibiza - pictures from holland 14/7/09

[Chrisdaman]

having talked to a couple of people that have experience, Nando and Eddy, i decided that i was going to supercharge my car, using an Eaton M45 charger. I got a list together and here are the parts that i have bought for this:



right starting a fresh new progress thread, with pics etc.

I've bought all the parts needed now, just a case of fitting / adapting them to my car. Heres the list:

Eaton M45 Supercharger , S works Model -

Universal Intercoolers Medium Intercooler (awaiting delivery after postage strikes) -

Ford Cosworth "Green Top" Injectors (again awaiting delivery) -

Megasquirt ECU (no pics as of yet)

1.8T Inlet Manifold (courtesy of beattie17) -

1.8T Fuel Rail and 3.5 BAR fuel pressure regulator (courtesy of Craig) -

2 x G60 Head Gaskets (until i can get some S2 pistons and rods, which might not be too long) -

i've got the money for the brackets to be made up aswell, so all is going ahead at the moment, cant wait

updates soon

how much has this cost you so far dude? You doin it to a 2.0 16valver i take it

 

[Chrisdaman]

i'm doing it to my 1.8 16v Gti (i seem to be the only one with that engine lol)

so far i've spent £830, that's everthing i mentioned above

 

[Roelích]

Awesome.

I'm currently in the process of supercharging my Ibiza. I'm going for the M62 charger though, apparently it works better on the 2.0... I have injectors (I think, they're 440cc, maybe too big?), a FMIC, and a fuel rail.

Inlet next! And Megasquirt!

Glad you've kept us updated mate. How much are the brackets setting you back? And who's doing the installation work?

roelich, let us know how much it costs you when your finished, just cos i thought chrisdaman had a 2.0 16v not an 1800

 

[Roelích]

I'm budgeting £1300 and that includes me wanting it live mapped. When progress kick starts a bit more, I'll post a thread up. The fact my car has broken a good few times of late has really hindered progress.

 

[Dolly_Gti]

£830 for it ey.. how much power that going to be pushing? ive just bought a G60 engine with stage 4 jabbasport charger, smaller pulley, chipped ecu, wiring loom, gearbox and all anciallarys for £800 im hoping to see around 180-200 .

its going in my mk2 Golf btw on my beeza

 

[Jamin Berry]

To suck or blow? This question haunts my mind.

Good choice. Arnt you unhappy with the speed of progress? Does anyone know what bhp/revs the s2 pistons can withstand?

Keep us updated (on your 3rd thread )

Roe, get one up with your progress biatch!

 

[Chrisdaman]

lol at first i was a bit inpatient but i've learned to cope with that things dont always go according to plan.

i'm hoping for 230-240bhp at the end of the day, the S2 pistons and rods would only give me the comfort of not having to use 2 G60 head gaskets. But then if i melted a piston they're like hens teeth to find.

Roelich, If you get bigger injectors than needed thats ok, cos when you map the car you can control the amount going through the injectors etc. The cossie ones i've bought are 390cc, plenty

i'm going to talk to nando today about the brackets. I think they're going to be roughly £260ish and then i can go up and learn how to fit the charger, Front panel off etc

 

[rocket_ronnie]

Have you thought about spark plugs? might be worth going a grade colder with that power

 

[Chrisdaman]

where can you get them from mate, i never thought about spark plugs, HT leads are on the list though, and an octane booster, not the shite liquids, it sits in the tank, or along the fuel line

 

[rocket_ronnie]

Are the 1.8 16v plugs the same as a 2.0 8v? if so then i can give you the plug code from mine. I'd recommend NGK iridiums, which i think you can pick up cheap on ebay

 

[m0rk]

I think that for 240bhp all your injectors are way too big.

 

[Chrisdaman]

yeh the cossie ones are 390cc, but the mapping can sort out the fuelling, i've also got some 1.8T injectors to

 

[Roelích]

I've got hold of 340cc injectors today, and an inlet manifold,a nd a 4 bar fuel pressure regulator.

 

[m0rk]

yeah, the ECU can manage 'big' injectors, but if it's duration is very short - not a good idea if too short

also.... the injectors you've mentioned have a very poor spray pattern

I think also that 340s @ 4 bar will be too much (more likely 340's at 3 bar will be ideal)

 

[Chrisdaman]

i've got a 3.5 Bar fuel pressure regulator, and the 1.8T injectors would give 305cc at 3.5bar

if the cossie ones are too much or rubbish i'll sell them

 

[F2 Stu]

lol at first i was a bit inpatient but i've learned to cope with that things dont always go according to plan.

And thats somthing you just have to find out for yourself, becuase things never run how you imagine them to....

20vt injectors will do fine I would imagine.

 

[myseatcupra]

silly question but does the 20v inlet bolt straight on or do you mod it to fit. just wonder thats all

 

[Chrisdaman]

yes as far as i know it bolts straight on, i'll check, i'm only going on a shopping list sent to me. I might have to weld it on to the lower half of my inlet

if you buy an audi S2 one, yopu have to cut one of the inlets off, and it bolts straight on then, the rea; question is could you hack up a rare part like an S2 inlet manifold?
