thanks for the replies guys - I have done the search but do not know what the supercharger installed is. I have been told it was installed by ecosse? Will this still reach 250bhp? |

No, its a Rich_W Rotrex setup. The ecosse conversion uses a Opcon supercharger and only made 220-230 bhp, someone correct me if i'm wrong here!The rotrex is the better 'charger, as its a centrifugal type, unlike the positive displacement type that ecosse fit, Rotrex suits a high revving 16v perfectly, where as the opcon will tail off at higher rpm. |

4.2k fitted I think or 3.5k for everything but you fit it yourself. Second hand parts can be had to save a bit on parts.

Thanks for all the info. I have a 6 rally car that I am in the process of building (again) In the meantime I wanted to try some navigational rallies- Being on the Isle of Man there are no Speed limits outside of town and came across a 306 on ebay - many will be familiar with it - black supercharged and cheap. Anyway -not going to bother if the SC is crap but would like to put my sadev box alongside a charged engine for the experience |

Which Sadev box do you have? as you have to be very careful on the torque levels with them, a SC 6 engine is likely to be over the limit for most transverse boxes they do.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
