lol twin charging would be awesome

stu you have pm

 

[Chrisdaman]

right did some better drawings at uni , on solidworks. Same dimensions as those above, this gives the general jist of the idea

that sits on top of the ghetto base i made lol

 

[jenk]

Solidworks is ace! Dont use it anymore though

Why not tidy your model up abit (build up how it would be fabricated) and do a nice little detail

Looks a little different than I expecting, think it needs to taper in more to the outlet for a smoother flow.

 

[jenk]

It does look a fair bit different to the sketches, they show the plate tapering into the pipe. Corners could be done better aswell, wouldnt that be a pain on the fab side?

 

[F2 Stu]

Not really, no different to the chutes/hoppers/silo's we make at work but alot smaller!

 

[m0rk]

i'd be tempted to make it from fibreglass

 

[jenk]

Just realised why it has those corners.....for the bolts

 

[Chrisdaman]

yeh i couldnt get the corners to taper on the program properly, the model just shows what the proportions look like

m0rk you reckon fibreglass would be ok? someone else said that to me

 

[m0rk]

it will be if you reinforce it sufficiently.

Which M45 Supercharger is being used on this, there 3 types. best one is the last one with the black teflon coated blades. Worth 7bhp alone on the mini.

Hi guys i'm getting my head round the ins and outs of supercharging an engine at the mo by reading all the info around on various sites etc but one thing still throws me where to you run the supercharger belt off as theres not like a spare pulley on the engine to just connect a belt too? or will you run a longer belt than standard and add the charger to what i wraps round?
Hope that makes some sense?

I think chris is getting rid of his aircon and using that pulley.

Yea, the idea is you bolt the charger inline with the rest of the anciliaries, and then just get a belt to suit. You can buy belts of all sizes, all you need is a little adjustment to tighten it

How much you want that S/C,

I'm changing the head and cam on my mini, so could upgrade tot he teflon one at the same time, let me know

 

[Dolly_Gti]

well ive got no need for it, and i have no idea how much these go for, so id just say £150 i suppose being off a mini onto a mini theres no need for any fabrication

 

[Ant FR]

too high for me mate, naaah problem, i'm bidding on two at the moment, seem to go to about 100 on the bay.

 

[Dolly_Gti]

saw this and remember you designing one ect.. might be of help
