Hmm. If boost numbers are modest, non-intercooled could still work well on a budget. Looking forward to additional details and dynos -- the kit looks very clean, and the welds are nice.

Wish someone would make a roots blower kit, tho'

As far as flow goes, that is as bad as it gets. The split after the supercharger outlet is horrible, and the driver side split is welded in the opposite direction of the flow. That is the angle (about 15*) you want if you want to draw slight vacuum.

I disagree.


It also looks like there is an electric clutch on the s/c drive. It means that the s/c could be turned on/off via switch. I am assuming
that they are trying to save fuel wit this? The Mercedes SC230 had a roots blower also with an electric clutch a few years back. These clutches are much like the a/c clutches...and I am not sure how well they hold.

EDIT:

Found the picture of the s/c with the electric clutch:

hold.

I had the same thought on the intake pipe..

sorry but who ever came up with this must not have any experience with boosting cars, the design is completely flawed

There MUST be something in there to divert flow to the driver side intake. Looks cool...if you don't know what you're looking at =D. Though, with the Swedes, I'm not surprised. Sven: "PRESS IT FOR GLORY!"

I kid. Your designs are usually quite practical as well as aesthetically pleasing.

Anytime you may not be getting similar airflow to both throttle-bodies (bends, uneven length piping), I'm out.

That would be my biggest worry. There is no way they can maintain equal pressure on both sides throughout the RPM range--efficiently--and an inefficient method would create heat.

It's far from ideal, but the volume that has to fill and the distance to the TB is pretty modest, so notwithstanding flow interruption from the sharp bend, boost should be pretty equal -- if it had to travel through another round of piping and an intercooler it would be another story.

Anyway, design theory aside, have they tested it yet?

Looks like bhp. A gain of 80 hp to the crank sounds about right for a non-intercooled set-up.

That's a pretty nice torque curve too.

Wait a minute. You're not a Swede. You're Swiss. Solid looking dyno. Expensive watches and large bank accounts vs. awesome looking cheap furniture.

I drive myself the STILLEN Supercharger

I unfortunately can not provide accurate information .....

This kit is officially for a week in Switzerland!

Hope that soon more information will be available ...?

Best regards from Switzerland

Power and tq do not cross at 5252 rpm on that dyno sheet, meaning one of those numbers is bullshite (technically, scaled wrong).
