Took me a long time to get to that stage, then got defected while the supercharger was still on the engine but nothing connected to it....Btw thats a SC14 on a 5K with a aircon bracket.

[DearmanKE]

the sc in mulotix foto's that isnt an sc12 is it?

 

it looks much to small?

 

 

and ryan, I'm keen on a pulley if you can do one/get one?

 

yeah the circumference of the crank pulley will have to be 79% of that of the SC pulley, for 7psi at like 2000rpm or 5000 the calculations are the same,

 

where do you plan to get your pulley?

[SLO-030]

I could make one, but I'm sure CBC bearings on South Rd at Regency Park wouls have something to suit our needs.

 

Or i might be able to modify something like an alternator pulley off a car with 8pk belt and mount it on the front of the crank snout.

 

although is prefer the V belt option as the tighter that are the further they sink into the V in the pulley and the more they grip, plus V belts are available in virtualy any size imaginable.

[SLO-030]

Fair nuff, fair nuff. What do you suggest? serpentine? Glimour belt drive :dance: ?

pillows? Sound deadening? jks

 

Will be using a serpentine belt after talking it thru with alex. EL flacon alternator pulley bolted to the front of the crank pulley. I think it should be the right size, maybe not. will investigate

 

EDIT: can't see how a V belt would make any more noise than a serpentine or the like. Apart from a squeeky fan belt the V bent doesnt seem to make any noise at all. even the serpentines are quiet

Yeah I'm curious to know how noisy these suckers are.

Keeping mine as a daily so i don't want alot of noise.. I would think the actual charger makes the noise?

[NickZ]

The one i built made no noise at all, it doesnt sound any different from standard, The throttle body was before the supercharger as it should be.

 

We have broken plenty of front shafts off the blowers by using a blow through setup and they make way too much noise that way too,

Everybody wants to use them as blow through, but soon come back to be redone with the throttlebody/carb put before the blower.

 

A supercharger is different from a turbo, you only have to look at factory setups.

[Falken_KE30]

Ahhh so it goes airfilter / TB / Charger / Intercooler? / EFI manifold / then motor?

[DearmanKE]

yeah

 

or Filter - Carby - SC - *NO IC* - Inlet - Motor

[SLO-030]

Thats the plan. Atm i don't know what i will be using in the way of SC drives. will basically come down to ease of installation and how easy it will be to replace things like belts and possibly tensioner pulleys.

[DearmanKE]

my sc12 has oil leaking into the rotors

 

re-seal time :dance:

[SLO-030]

Note to self: don't steal Alex's sc just yet, wait till re-seal [/note]

 

what sorta money ya lookin at for a re seal?

[DearmanKE]

25 USD for seal kit, + 50 USD for toyota SC Oil, + postage

 

but to change the seals you need to take the bearings out and blah blah, see my latest rant in my SC thread

[SLO-030]

Get the seal kit for 25 USD (about 45 AUD) find somewhere in adelaide that stocks a similar oil. then go down to CBC bearings and they should have what you need

[DearmanKE]

hopefuly it turns out that easy ay
