Re: finaly the day has come

oh and its the alpine kit i bought used off of someone

 

[sprague1420]

congrats

and get yourself some new sparkplugs cover , hit Kdmguy if you can't find it.

lol yea i had a rough time changing my plugs lol

Always nice to see a i4 boosted the supercharger way...

How many hours of hard work? Did you do this all by yourself?

it only took about 2 hrs to put it on... but the installation of all of the supporting mods took alot longer.... especialy the clutch... i had to tear it apart 3 times lol

awww man where did you ever find a working alpine supercharger i always run into em every now and the with broken blowers or manifold wish i could find one next time i have some spare cash and go twin charged ahh cool though welcome to the fi club post an engine bay pic over in the boosted i4 sec

i actualy got it on this site! the guy totaled his elantra and i bought it from him
hopefuly that i will be twincharged in my future :3_winkthu

im going to wait to get my engine bay cleaned up a bit and take a better pic... then ill post a pic of it in that one thread:3_pimatyo

Congrats on the SC, the Alpine is a pretty good setup.

Your Tib is going to be way more fun to drive now.

I have been running one for about 3 years now and been very satisfied with it.

already is and i dont have a good tune yet



ok here is a strange question....

would i have any benifit from installing a intercooler with maybe a CRY02 system or a water spray system on the intercooler? my thinking is.... the cooler i get the air the more condenced it becomes.... the more air i can get into the supercharger manifold.... the more air that will be compressed into the motor and in turn more power?

i found one pretty cheap and i can fab up the tubes so im not worried about cost or the work.... just wondering if it would be beneficial

 

[sprague1420]

Nope, zero benefit, in fact you would have less power due to the restriction. Your best option is meth injection.

alright... just what i wanted to know.... thanks

its a good year gatorback belt... it came with the supercharger and what he did was took a 8 rib belt and he cut it in half

the number of the belt is 8PK1640 and there is no slippage that im aware of

 

[sprague1420]

you lucky guy! congrats, enjoy the new horsepower!

i love it

 

[sprague1420]

luckyyyy. wanna trade? olz. youll get tired of it eventually!

hahaha damnnnnnn...... i dont think ill get tired of it man..... ive only had it for 2 days!!! lol atleast give me a month before asking me to trade!! lol

 

[sprague1420]

looks like a nice setup...

thank you!

 

[sprague1420]

ughhhhhhhhh

why the **** did you post that. now I am looking into this option again but I want teh Turbo

lol sorry man... i was going to go with a turbo but i found a supercharger setup for a price i couldnt beat

i love the sound of a BOV on a turbo set up though
