So what's it like compared to stocker?

Which model of toyota is it off? I might build a similar setup for a khanacross car. Instant torque is a highly valued thing.

BTW, I think you need a mercedes kompressor badge for it now😁

so with a bigger carby there is a possibility to run higher boost? like would it be possible to run about 7 max so you use about 3-5 normally, on an engine that should rev to about 7000

fuel is not the problem is air a bigger through is needed i had a 40 delorto that would run 10 lb with the small blower pully bit that was to much for long term use so i ran 6 lb at 4000 revs whitch let it run 1-2 lb at idle and this gave me enormous amount nof torque whitch is what i was wanting

is this attached to a stock motor? are the gains over stock really noticable? i am thinking of attaching one to the 1916cc im about to build, would the charger be able to flow enough? and i thought the toyota chargers could run up to 12psi or where you refering to the point that at 10psi it was almost too undrivable for long term use?

yep a stock motor it's a 1600 and with the blower it's a 2.5 with torque they will run to 10 lb BUT you are talking a toyota whitch normally runs 600 with no probs
now a vw is a ifferant beast low reving
and for running the 14 toyota is for a 2 lit high veving donk so as for feeding a 1916 no worries if ya use the right cARBY

hey dude, can you post new pics of the car am eagerly awaiting pics of it driving 🙂 and what would your thoughts be of mounting a 90 degree bend on the top of the charger so you can use a side carby, just in term of fitting under the decklid, do you think it would be possible with regards the the space it would take?

these blowers are naturally on there side in toyotas the last one i did was mounted with a side draft delorto toyota say they can be mounted either way you could also use a blowthrough system and that would make it very fittable

Question regarding the SC, is there any problems twisting it like that? i mean in terms of the oil etc, because on the tyota it is mounted with the narrower side on the top/bottom,
and another question with the blow off valve, im assuming thats the silver thing mounted on the side or the pipe work, it looks like a recirculating type, where does that vent to? thanks

no worries turning the blower on it's side there is a extra position for the oil dipstick and toyota say it's ok and as for a blowof valve it's really not a blowof as the blower does not make excess pressure but it will backfire and destroy your rotors so a relief valve is needed hense the wrx and it vents to the air but it does have a vacume release if i want to attach to the carby so i can berp when changing gears hope that helps nade i'm waiting for the dissy bits than up up and away

if it does vent wont that mean that fuel vapours will be released into the engine bay? where abouts is the extra position?? Thanks

yep into the engine bay but remember it's a small amount bof vapor than the spring closes it
my old 71 bus with the same blower had ba rubber pipe that blew out and hadb to be replaced when it blew but it saved the rotors although it was a bit annoying so i fitted a blowoff similar to this one it takes a matter of tenths of a secondb to vent and rerset it's not a fuel rail dragster

the yanks have been using half shrouds for years on there rails it's not that hard with the oil cooler removed and placed elsewere with a fan than all the shit removed from inside it gives a better air flow to 3&4 cylinders so it actually cools better
and the dissy in the picture is not the one being used i'm using a dissy of a 61-67 bug whitch are 1.5 inches shorter
no big mysterss just homne work and asking the right people

when you pull the blower pulley apart there is the clutch flange with the spline that drives the blower shaft i used that with an orrdinary v pulley that slid over the long shaft and locked on with a grub screw this way it takes 5 minutes to change the pulley size thus the blower bust i will put up some picks

the pulley was from a trash and tresure i just kept my beady little eyes open but ya could get em from an engerning supplier






and these are the dissys thqat i had to pick from
you may have noticed that one pulley was made from a genny pulley set

are you still running the magnetic clutch on the pulley? I want to maintain the clutch so that the sc can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch, the problem is with hat i dont think tha i can change the pulley. I am yet to pull the pulley off to confirm this however. Another problem with that is that i will need to run and air byoass valve, si that air can still flow when the sc is off, i think i am just over complicating things.

with the blower of they still run i droped a belt and went 2 hours before i got a hold of another and as for running with a switch you won't turn it off as the fuel will still be running through the bigger jets so if ya kep the electronic clutch ok but if ya don;t no worries i had mine on the last one and never switched it off was not needed saved nothing by doing it and lost torque when you needed it
