Default Supercharger for the V6

Well, Somebody over here did it. I can't tell exact what brand (not autorotor or Eaton) it is but it is a roots type and was built in conjunction with Ogura (Japanese clutch and tuning company).

It is a physically small unit but in order to "fit" a new hood was made for the car.

Don't get too excited. I have my doubts. First they say it should make 15 psi but the unit is way to small to push that much air. No intercooling, no power numbers, and no mention of knocking. It probably misfires like crazy under boost and probably only makes 30-40 more hp than stock.

I will snoop around and ask some questions. Also, I'll see if I can scan some pictures.

Yeah pics were posted a few weeks ago. The hood bulge was quite funny.

Sorry,

Didn't realize someone already posted it. I've been too dam* busy trying to figure out if I should get back into drag racing.... I need to spend some more $$$ to get another 100-200 hp out of the mazda.

I will still snoop around for some insider info.
