Thread: Supercharged classic rangie. Boring

But I bet it SOUNDED GREAT!

I'm guessing that was the one at Freds?
When are you going to tell us all about your new defender?

Nope sounded like a normal stock rangie. No blower noise. No exhaust noise. Yes wardy. The one at freddies

What new defender!!!!!! Lol

Only thing I have new is my ute and that's now done 30k. So sad

Ok I'll post a new thread on the pos fender

So Clarkie , should I hold back and not Bolt up my M90 Blower on the 3.9 with worked heads. Will I be disappointed ?

from all I have read, the M90 is to short and can create pressure differences and can bugger the engine apparently the better one is the M112 as it is longer and gives an even pressure across the intakes?

dunno if it is true or not but I have read that in several different places now

Bit of gentlemanly discourse on Pirate about blowers and Rover motors atm (down the page, below the RRC surgery pics) here:

New RockStar Fab project vehicle - Page 7 - Pirate4x4.Com Bulletin Board

The fueling issue I beleive may have something to do with the standard 14CUX ecu having no extra fueling above 4800rpm.

I think you will find the main problem in the install you test drove was all to do with the engine management system.

It's very easy to set them up poorly, yet ever soo difficult to set them up well.

If a supercharged classic can't at least sorta keep up with a 2.5ton ve ute, then i'd be looking beyond the charger and the motor (assuming it's running a descent amount of boost, over 6psi).

Was it an auto or manual?
