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

fair play. Like i said, its the room in the bay that concerns me with a larger charger

 

[Roelích]

We'll have to see how it goes! Will let you know in March!

 

[ste4232]

yeah, id love to see how you do get on with M62! We'll have to meet up for a showdown when they both done ;-)

 

[Chrisdaman]

dont forget me, i'm the random 1.8 16v bieng charged, the engined is rare enough in an ibiza

3 Charged Ibizas = photoshoot i reckon

 

[ste4232]

Yeah, im well up for a group shoot!

Im settling for no less than a cover feature this time too!!!

 

[Roelích]

When mine is finished, I'd like a mag feature. New wheels, retrim, etc...

 

[Chrisdaman]

mine'll be done by april

i get my bonus in march so that'll pay for bodywork touch ups and a good mopping

i'm in kingston, Roelich is in Doncaster (missions lol) where are you ste?

 

[Roelích]

Mine will be charged by April. Wheels and re-trim should be done for September.

She looks quite acceptable as she is though!

Do you have to do anything with regards to the vacuum servo now as its now forced induction? I appologise if this has already been brought up,havent gone through all of the pages.

 

[Chrisdaman]

i'll know more when we fit it all, i'm sure nando has everything covered

 

[Roelích]

I have no idea what a vacuum servo is haha

 

[m0rk]

You soon will when you hit the brakes

 

[Roelích]

Google knows all

 

[ronnie35]

Well..as the servo relies on negative air presure from the inlet manifold for the brakes to work, and you now have a posotive pressure in the manifold due to the supercharger. Isnt braking going to be an issue? Or am i missing something here?!

 

[m0rk]

when you are off throttle, there should be -ve vacuum still

brakes will be useless with positive pressure (on boost)

 

[jenk]

How do factory forced induction motors deal with the pressure then, totally different method of obtaining pressure for the brakes?

 

[m0rk]

you won't be on boost when braking.... therefore it'll run negative pressure

plus I think the servo pipes have one way valves

 

[Fl@pper]

servo only assists the brakes

without it they will feel harder to push just like the good old days lol

as m0rk says one way valve in the pipe will sort it or if you are really worried connect it to the other side of the supercharger that sucks not blows

probably too much vacuum then and the brakes will lock on

 

[jenk]

Makes perfect sense, cant see him having any issues then.

 

[jenk]

My simple minds thought of something.....when the throttle body loses surely positive pressure is present, BOV sort that out?

Edit: the one way valve
