think you guys are due for an update!

Bought the hp tuners MPVI2 yesterday, which is a good part of the build project! Can't wait to learn how to tune!

Also, I don't plan on going over 10 psi for the time being, if so, I'll upgrade to a M62 supercharger instead as the M45 won't do much more efficiently than that.
Did you ever go forward with this project?

And this is why you don't cheap out on aftermarket stuff boys and girls.

THIS MAN SPEAKETH THE TRUTH!

But there are always those who don't even consider high quality parts because: "Why pay more when you could pay less?"

You get what you pay for....

:LOL:

What's your game plan for making that thing work?

I'll be making an adapter plate (already made a prototype drawing) to adapt the AC Compressor bolt pattern to this superchargers bolt pattern. Since I didn't have AC to begin with, I'm saving having to delete the AC system! I posted the excel spread sheet, check in the second tab, there's a bunch of pictures I use for reference and they show quite well.
I saw in your spread sheet that you need some 40+ lbs injectors? I'm actually upgrading from 465cc (~ 43 lbs) Deatschwerks injectors to 650 cc (~ 60lb) injector. The have about 5,000 miles on them. If you would like to buy them they are yours. I'll even throw in the OEM fuel rail if you want it. PM me if interested. I'll accept any reasonable offer.

Darn,

In the time since this thread I've come across electric superchargers, currently a DIY thing, but when thinking about less strain on the motor since there's nothing restricting the exhaust vs the motor having to make power to gain power
An electric supercharger, that actually compresses air?

I gotta see that.
