turbo, supercharger, fsze, or ITB'???

On the third to the last picture you can see the SC and the mounting plate.

As for the intake filter it is in the last picture under the pipe leading to the MAF.

 

[ajkulish]

so how did you make that mounting plate? Do you have a picture of it before installation? What did it hook up to.

 

[HKPRO5]

It bolts up directly to the OEM AC mounting points.
(without the idle pulley)

What it looks like hooked up out of the car.

So next summer I am rebuilding my engine. Or if I. Go turbo or super I will buy a new low mileage engine depending on the price.

But I have questions

Fsze:
If I go fsze I will rebuild my engine, go with stock rods and high compression fsze pistons. Also it would be bored 0.020 over. I would also get a header and the fsze and corksport power series cams. The biggest issue is finding an fsze ecu and harness. With catback and intake already would it be reasonable to aim for 180 hp na this way?

ITB's:
Is it possible to itb a protege? I really don't know. I know if it was possible I would have to adjust the way the throttle linkage worked and idk ablout the maf and temp sensor. Can anyone give insight on this? How much power would these make.

Turbo:
If I boosted I would probably go msp swap. I know with fmic and boost controller I could make 200 hp. I don't want ridiculous undrivable hp. I want to be fuel efficient when I have to and quick when I need to. How much would a full swap cost. And does anyone have a full list of conversion parts?

Supercharger:
I have seen a few people lately who have done this. I know the power would be better than a turbo. What parts would I need. Supercharger, belt, pipe to intake manifold, intake pipe, and oil lines. Is that it? It seems like it could be cheap. Would I need an intercooler? And what would I need for mounting hardware?

I need to get all this s*** sorted out before I decide the route to go. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

FSZE: If you want to go this route, I can help you , I have both ECUs and harnesses available.

ITBs: Has been done. The easiest ones to use would be from a AE101 Trueno

Turbo: Easiest one to do

Supercharger: Just look at the pics above this post !!

Hkpro5. Thanks for all the help. So much. You are really helping out more than you think.
Do you think there's any way ac can be maintained?

And focus. I know you talked to me about the fsze before. Was it fun? And how is gas mileage.? Also how much for a ecu and harness for a mt? Just trying to get numbers here.

Really the only way would be doing a shafted setup. This would mean putting the SC on the right side of the engine bay, welding brackets somewhat flush to the belts, have a shaft that goes across then have a pulley on that. That pulley would be flush with the belt line. To me that's too much work, too much clutter.

You should be able to google "shafted supercharger" and get an idea.

 

[ajkulish]

Eh alright

 

[ajkulish]

Made the first step of my build and reserved my sc fuadmsp is holding it for me until I can purchase it in spring

 

[HKPRO5]

Yep I was going to buy that one as a spare. lol Awesome.

 

[ajkulish]

Haha sorry budm if this doesn't happen then its all yours lol. My dad is being a choch and not deciding for a while. Whatever. I'm not worried. I'm just gonna but a 35 dollar bov and say "dad I already started buying parts for it!"

 

[ajkulish]

bump so i can put this thread on my first page of subs

 

[nareshseep]

anyone dynoed thier supercharger?

 

[HKPRO5]

I did. lol


160 at 3-4 psi.

Ill be getting an updated dyno once I get some cash. since then I have added 440cc injectors, Intercooler, larger crank pulley (8-9 PSI) 4-2-1 headers, straight pipe 2.5"

im shooting for over 220.

 

[yudkib]

you didnt have a good exhaust when you did 160? odd. you should be close to 220 i would think -- probably over 200 anyways...

 

[HKPRO5]

Yea all I had was headers and a truck tip.

Now I have 4-2-1 Mazda 626 headers (long tube) and 2.5" straight back to a 3" N1 tip
