HKPRO5's Supercharger Build Thread

[azuelke]

That makes more sense lol.

 

[HKPRO5]

Got the new piping routed. Need to paint the pipes. Other than that everything is good.


EDIT

 

[Sleezer1533]

Wrinkle

Wrinkle

it is wrinkle...

looks good Cres

 

[Lewis7789]

Damn that looks sooooo clean, Cres. And your strut bar looks good white. I think I'll paint mine too. But are you missing your battery tie down?

ps- thank you for finally posting pics.

 

[Kooldino]

If you're gonna two-tone it go gray or black.

 

[ajkulish]

can i get some better pics of the new pipe routing?

 

[MidnightProtege]

if only speedcircuit sold optima red tops, id take one in a heart beat lol.

btw love the exhaust manifold powdercoat dood

 

[HKPRO5]

So decided once I fix the small things, get the sway bar on (rear) Ill start up in SCCA again. Turns out the have a new class SMF (Street Modified FWD) This way I dont get murdered by souped up M3s and STIs lol.

So
Replace AEM Wideband Sensor
Replace second O2 sensor
Change flanges on exhaust to 3 bolt with gasket
Get new endlinks and install RSB. (Progress)

 

[ajkulish]

you guys just got smf? weve had that for a while. you hawaii guys always late on the trends

 

[HKPRO5]

I didnt know we had it till yesterday. lol

 

[ajkulish]

its pretty competitive. there are always fully gutted ef hatches in there with 9 inch slicks. and they usually dominate the class

 

[HKPRO5]

meh its the same guys I was racing. I was in the top part of the other cars in SM, just in front of me were the STIs, and M3s.

 

[HKPRO5]

So switched back to the OEM injectors. I think that the 440s were a bit much. Also went back to an old tune. Well see how it goes.

Car is REALLY dirty. Going to wash it later tonight.

 

[stjohans]

Is your BOV venting to atmosphere or recirc? and where would be the best place to tie back into the intake if its recirc? i hear right before the supercharger is the way to go?

 

[HKPRO5]

I am currently venting. I'm thing about running a recirc setup as well.

 

[ajkulish]

i dont see a purpose in recirculating. it usually helps a turbo spool faster, but we dont have to worry about that.

 

[THE Phen]

Well... unless the car is tuned with a MAP sensor, and not a MAF sensor, the ECU has already calculated the fuel delivery based upon the airflow going thru the MAF. The moment the BOV opens and vents to atmosphere, a great deal of the air that was used in the calculation for fuel delivery is no longer going into the engine, creating a very rich moment before the transition from boost to vacuum has settled. VTA can produce backfires for no reason.

 

[ajkulish]

cress do you ever get a flame with the sc? like backfire?

if the MAF is located between the BOV and the intake manifold this should not be a problem though am i right?
