CHARGECOOLING!
Turbo Mini Forums

Okay so my last ideas not gonna work ! How bout front mounting an m45 ? Anyone done it? sorry ie swapping for alternator . i can make pretty much any brackets up.

Search on "supercharger" there are some interesting threads.

If I was to do this, I would use a blow through setup, a bypass valve and a big intercooler, just like the OEMs are doing it.

You need the bypass valve to prevent over-pressurising the throttle at low load. The bypass valve vents the boost back to the blower inlet.

I wrote a lengthy blurb on it in the technical section.

Mini is sat in the shed in less bits than it usually is.

You need to modify the front panel a tad and probably remove the catch. Run the blower oo rather than trying the impossible to pipe up 8 and there ya go.

Bugger off, I'm getting there.
