Turbo Mini Forums

my current spec is a N/A 1275 with a minispeed stage 2 head fitted and 40 webber

i am after using the weber carb on a suckthrough supercharger set up,
so here are my questions

1. what would be a good CR
2. with the weber fitted onto the supercharger do the brake master cylinders get into the way?
3. i have a 2 core rad with metal 6 blade fan and water wetter is this suffecient?
4.and what is the average torque + bhp for a standard 1275 with a sc

i have also been looking around to purchasing my own parts to make up a kit but i cant find anywhere that sells the manifold for the webber under 200 pound

Your best having a look at the Stuart Gurr kits his the only one I have seen that uses a Weber.

1. Depends on the boost you are looking to run however on a suck through IMO I would stick around the 10psi mark. I run 8.7:1 on 7-10 psi.

2. The kits that use weber I have seen sick out of the bonnet, I presume this is why.
3. I run a two core without a mech fan and an electric on the inner wing and its been fine.
4. Only one way to find out... lots will depend on the condition of the engine and your head etc.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!

have you had any trouble with running a supercharger? i have had a turbo and i decided to sell it and run NA for a while but just got the hankering to run a supercharger

have you seen the manifolds on ebay?

I have a stable setup with mine but it took a little tinkering to get me to this point. I think that is he same with any setup. One man's fine is not another's.

I dont run a Eaton charger. There are some power advantages to running a turbo setup over a supercharger.

I did see some cheap ones a while back, but then VMAX and Jonspeed also advertise on Ebay.
