Hi Bal,

Glad you got your setup working right finally, I understand what it takes.

Beta II Tib with an Alpine MP45 SC kit, SRT Neon primary injectors, SMC water/alcohol injection, FIC piggyback, 57mm SC pulley, Injen CAI, Borla exhaust.

My SC has about 45,000 miles on it. I am about ready to send it here to get it overhauled and have the inner case coated and rotors recoated. I have talked with him and he sounds like he knows what he's doing.

Post some pics of the Singh grooves in your cyl head, I have a spare head and want to do the same to it.

 

The more I look and read, the more I'm sure your buddy is wrong.

Not only do we have a couple of SC knowledgeable people in here saying it, now theres calculators.

http://www.superchargersonline.com/hp_calculator.asp

I put in the following.

Your Entries:
Existing horsepower: 130 rear wheel HP
Planned level of boost: 10
Planned fuel octane rating: 96
Intercooler / Aftercooler None

Estimated Results:
HP Loss due to timing adjustment: 10
Est. flywheel HP with supercharger: 255.1375
Est. rear wheel HP with supercharger: 204.11
Total HP Gain: 74.11 rear wheel HP
Percentage Gain: 57.0076923076923 %

Look at those numbers brother, they look VERY similar to what you have for BHP, don't they?

 

For the guys who want to singh groove their cylinder head, have a look at the album. I have put all my pictures up there.

Step 1 : Mark an outline of the gasket onto the cylinder head using permanent marker
Step 2 : Decide where you want your groove, mines are in between the valves on both sides
Step 3 : Use a small triangle file and start filling away, careful to collect any shavings
Step 4 : Smooth the groove out using fine sand paper
Step 5 : Put engine back together and enjoy!!

Careful not to get too close to the gaskets and not too deep.

It is hard to make out the little groove opposite the big groove in the picture

 

An auto elantra just recently made 197whp with 10psi on the mp45.

 

regardless, you are pushing good numbers...now you just need to do meth injection to help cool even better and then you can raise the boost...

keep up the good work

 

I think he's got his system about maxed out on boost, from what I was reading yesterday, and comments here, that thing is at the edge of it's use.



Post up about it!

 

12 psi is about the most you can squeeze out of the MP45 and even at this pressure the little supercharger is working very hard, so efficiency is out the window.

By adding the meths/water injection it will bring the temperature of the charge down and help with overall power. But I did not go with a supercharger for high horsepower figures, if I wanted them I would have gone with a turbo.

Thanks again for the very positive comments left by members of this site.

Alot of time and effort goes into making things work, especially when you modify cars to this extent. I am pleased with my achievements so far and hope to improve on this in the near future.

I will be visiting Donnington Park later on this month to see how the car copes on the track

 

Hi Red Zman,

Xorro made 199 BHP not WHP.....

"The final result was 199.5bhp (flywheel) and 201nm of torque."

and to get that she had to do:


25cc overbore
Alpine Supercharger
Aquamist water injection system
Big-Bore throttle body
Custom Pipercross induction kit (Blue anodised)
FSE Fuel Pressure Regulator
Hyundai F2 Evolution Cams
Lightweight Stage 2 Clutch (280 lbft)
Lightened and Balanced flywheel
Magnecor 8mm Electrosports wires
Mocal Oil Cooler
NGK Copper Spark Plugs
Ram-Air Pipe
Stainless Steel 4-2-1 Header
Stainless Steel cat-Back (but no cat)
Unichip B

We have never known the WHP for her car, but im guessing that it was running around the 165whp? mark.

 

Really? I thought it was WHP. I'll have to take another look at her old posts, I saw some yesterday while searching but never looked closely.

 

Wow, that's alot of parts for 165whp. My last dyno was 155whp NA and I was actually making more when I sold the car. I wonder what kind of dyno those numbers are from.
