There's no way i can go turbo it's to small with the auto box it's only been done once and the pipe was so damn tiny not much psi was used.

Look on ebay USA they have the Eaton 62 superchargers for bout $300USD and with shipping so cheap now cause of the aussie dollar you could do it easily

I wouldn't be surprised if there where kits out that used it for the zed they are the most hobby friendly SC around

supercharged zed? nah, tubbo ftw , its not about how fast you are going, its how fast you think you are going, and the lag then boost is a much nicer feeling than my mates commo SS, which is just linear pull, feels much slower (though im sure they are about the same speed)

Yes i believe thats how it works from what i've read on PT

If the supercharger is after the throttle body then the compressed air is just coing into the cylinders and isn't being sucked in where the TB is

That was what i read when they have 2 SC one where they had a M90 weded onto the back of the intake runners on the probe and one that was before the throttle body the noise change was hardly any to super loud

Actually thinking about it now the sound is probably cause when the supercharger is put before the TB it has to have a air filter on it and thats probably why it sounds great cause the SC is sucking in the air

Turbos ARE fun.
Kinda dangerous sometimes though. Like when its raining.

If I was going to do something to my MX6 it would be supercharged.

Have I posted the Cosmo's dyno graph here yet? its kinda funny.

From what I have read BMW uses S/C instead of turbos. So it might be easier to S/C DS's Zed.

S/C noise is awesome. Love that S/C probe!

*sigh*

How are you supposed to put together a quote when,

A) The notebook's part number is different compared to other contries, despite being the same thing?

B) Notebook specs are not avaliable in the Quotation program, nor on google..

Bah!

Cross referenced the Australian part number to Hong Kong's part number...googled it and found the specs....

Only took me an hour!
