I know its more complex than just strapping it on there. There's fuel delivery, tuning, other supporting mods. If you have a link for a good resource on intake manifold design or supercharger setup design please share it and I'll put in the time to do the research. Thats a lot more helpful than just shitting on the idea just because you don't like the components I've chosen. I just figured I would ask to see if anyone here could actually provide help, you know, kind of the point of the forum.

Don't get mad at me.. I'm not knocking you for asking and going on a forum.

You chose to challenge my comment and call me a "hater"..

I'm just saying your all over the place with being a turbo guru with your 8 boosted cars, then onto 3ding plastic on an engine to make this work.... so now your jumping into another extreme specialty.. then magically your dad has turbo cars and again it's the same story of every kid that comes on and has these magical skills and resumes of being car experts but then a month later they ask people how to change out a oil filter or how to change out spark plugs cause in reality they don't know anything and make stuff up on the fly or evgaduarate to get instant credit.

I'm fine with you doing your own thing on your own car. I'm fine with you doing s junk yard build. I think it's a pipe dream but if you pull it off awesome.

I'm just saying I think your way ahead of your self and would be better off flipping this, and like other people have said serveral times just buying a pre made kit rather than trying to guess your way into a custom fabbed SC swap.

That's my advice, take it or don't. Idc I still think either way this isn't going to end well for your VQ if you continue this idea.

Whatever man, I'm not mad at you or anything, you're entitled to your opinion. I never claimed to be a turbo guru but I've got experience with engine swaps, transmission conversions, turbos, etc. I can do pretty much everything but engine internal assembly, transmission rebuilds, or weld. All of which I'm going to school to learn, I'm not some clueless idiot man. Also my dads car is supercharged not turbo, and he didnt get it magically, he worked for it.

I'm just trying to come up with ideas on how to mount it to the vq so I'm proposing different ideas to see what other people think about it. If you don't have any constructive ideas that apply to my actual goal you feel like sharing why are you in this thread? I'm going to supercharge the car with this supercharger, you're not going to change my mind about that. So if you would like to share ideas on ways I could accomplish that I'd appreciate it, otherwise have a good day.

What are you thinking to cool the charge? Personally I love this because if this works then it may be possible for bigger blowers.

Do I think it's pointless to use this blower? Yes

but you would be better trying to remote mount it and pipe it to the intAke than to try to make it fit on the intake.

That's how you can do it, but it needs to line up correctly with the belts, but still a pita and not worth your time.

You can do a cheap rear-mount set-up for $400 plus piping(home depot has mandrel 90's and fence posts)/tuning$300/injectors$170

I just priced out an eBay rear-mount special and it comes to about $500 for my DD(tuning on fuel pressure only)

Yea, I have more experience with turbos and considered it but I just don't want to turbo this car.

That remote mount setup is an interesting concept. I hadn't really thought about that as a possibility but it makes a lot of sense. Would also make using an FMIC like the Greddy unit I have lying around much easier.

Is there enough room in our bays, to remote mount a positive displacement blower?

OP, I believe in you. Since you have all those skills and all that experience I trust that you can fab up some great and innovative way to mount that on to a VQ. Then you should make it a kit and sell them. Then PROFIT.

Thanks man, if I'm able to make it work I'll definitely put the information out there for the community or produce a kit myself. Just a matter of putting in the time to research and develop the right part to adapt it to the VQ. Could open the door to boost for a lot of people who hadn't considered it before because of how cheap you can get these superchargers.

Seems like time well spent to me. Even if it doesn't work out I'll still learn a hell of a lot.

I'm over here on driver, was thinking m90 or the new TWS blower.... trying to contact stiegemeier in MO to see if they can work with me on this. the eaton MP62 runs too hot to be efficient. I have in my possession a stage 3 stillen s/c that I'll be working on to try to make some magic happen with my car.

If you can weld, then it might be a simple FI mod. I'd say let him try it. Let's see what the bottom of the Eaton looks like, where it would mate up with the manifold. I agree with bealljk that if you eliminate the upper and lower manifold and weld up to the intake manifold via a spacer, you should be all set. Post more pics of the other side...

Ok so here's some more pictures and dimensions. Most of them are just rough measurements you'll see in the pics. The mounting surface is about 9.5in across at its widest. Now there is another version of this supercharger that came on some Mercury XR7s and Ford Tbirds that did not have the whole throttle body attachment at the back that may make for easier mounting in the car. If I can find one of those I'll probably grab one of each style until I make a decision.

One of the other things I've been looking into is different length snouts. Unfortunately while it looks like there are several for the M62, I have not found any for the M90, and the 2 do not look to be interchangeable.

Wow, that is not conducive to feeding into 6 runners at all! You'll basically have to convert a lower manifold to cover that size. Too much work

but we're not ganna suck your azz hole and feed your smoke by trying to build a SC on $100 lunch money at the junk yard.

Cool find sure. But it's a pipe dream. Your a dime a dozen kid. Sorry to burst your bubble but we're not ganna hold your hand and spoon feed you like you want us to.

Not being dicks. It's called being in the real world and getting into something you hardly know anything about, if you did you wouldn't be here asking us to make this work for you

This gave me a weird tingle.

I like it
