its basically a heat exchange (like a radiator) works more efficient than a air-air intercooler but generally more $$$$

yeh, id be interested in one to suit XH style induction (serpenitine belts with EA-ED type manifold) but i have a couple of questions:

can you get that blower with a straight scroll housing? i want to run a front mount cooler and that would make the piping much easier, and for some extra $$$ could snort supply the bends,joiners and the cooler (welding it up isnt a worry)

thanks

Jose

Hey guys, i've just arrived back from a decent holiday and almost forgot about the supercharger project. I haven't been able to get a hold of jeoff since arriving back yesterday so i'll try him again tonight and see what's been happening. Hopefully i haven't missed out on the group buy.

Hi,

Please include myself as an interested party, including A2A FMIC or W2A IC, and "Stage 3" setup. I will be having my motor rebuilt to low-compression spec at some stage in the future and plan to have the setup fitted along with the rebuild. I am considering an aftermarket ECU also, so a chip that may come with your kit will not be neccesary.

I have a 5.0 EB.

I will watch this thread with great interest.

-Dave-

I've been watching this thread for some time now. No news for 2 weeks now, understand it's not going to happen overnight...but it will happen.

In the market for a blower in an EF 6, count me in on this if it's done shortly.

Have you been able to contact Snort?

It's going to happen eventually guys, i know it's been a while but there is only so many things that a bloke can do. Supercharger is still sitting in the corner awaiting some final touches and testing. It's killing me knowing just how close it is. Snort has had plenty of turbo kits to produce inbetween completion of the S/C and before that it was a simple lack of time and funding. It's going to happen i bet my left one on it.
