Yeah and the bolt holes on yours are no where near as deep as the ones on the 16s. Don't know why they are different but they are. It's a pain in the arse really as my socket literally only just reaches without smashing f**k out of the bolt holes.

Be interesting to see what you get out of it with the smaller pulley on. What sort of boost level will it be running? I've often wondered if you'd get more low down grunt with a smaller pulley on a rotrex. You'd have to lower the rev limit though so to not over spin it.________________________________________ Black power baby!

Well a friend kindly fitted the pulley for me yesterday (took a hydraulic press in the end to get it on ![]() Car is now all ready for mapping and cleaned for FCS so just needs a quick wipe over Friday. Charger isn't in the best of shape. Its making the boost it should do fine but sounds like the end bearings are on their way out as you get an occasional knock from the rotors. Just hope it lasts until after mapping and FCS ![]() |

214 not bad for a home brew to be honest pretty well 50bhp on top. I'm really struggling with mine at the minute. I'm trying to fit a gigantic intercooler as well as oil cooler and traction fluid cooler behind it.... Proving to be a nightmare. ________________________________________ Black power baby!

That's a great result ![]() Do you think there is more potential in there somewhere to get a bit more power? Would be great if you could squeeze 250 out of the setup ![]() ________________________________________ Just Drive It |

I'd be interested to see this against a low boost rotrex. The torque looks quite good to me especially low down.Good effort especially for doing it yourself and doing something a bit different to everyone else ![]() ________________________________________ Ryan |

Suprchargers dont make torque like a turbo does as its not free driven power. Will be interesting to see what mine makes now ive tweaked it a bit and got a cooler 3 times the size lol ________________________________________ Black power baby!

There are other guys out there with 250 on a similar set up but that really is pushing it and I'm not after chasing figures. Im after having something thats fun which this now ticks all the boxes for! rallyestyle wrote: That's a great result ![]() Do you think there is more potential in there somewhere to get a bit more power? Would be great if you could squeeze 250 out of the setup ![]() Always more potential my friend! Again, i was really struggling with heat on the dyno. At one point he actually had the hose from the air conditioner over my air filter and i was still seeing 35 degrees but that was when he was really putting it under some load...to the point where my back bumper started melting as my exhaust is too close lol. Next move is an enclosed air filter and potentially a more efficient IC. Also to move the oil cooler from in front of the IC to on top so its not blowing hot air through. rallyeash wrote: Torque looks a little low? I didn't think 180 was bad for 215hp considering a lynx kit is about about 205-210 for 250hp. Don't forget, eaton chargers are a completely different beast to a rotrex which is proved with graphs. These run out of puff at higher RPMs which you can see on the graph yet the Rotrex chargers seem to give a very smooth line of torque. No one can argue that on paper, the Rotrex is the better charger but at quite a considerable extra cost and is that extra cost worth the extra 30-35hp? Imo, not really. Oh and you don't get that noise ![]() |

Oh and 2 videos because we all like videos ![]() http://youtu.be/y6mvG6gZCOo Final power run http://youtu.be/AtG9W7FaaD0 Quick demo of my new PLX gauge. Great bit of kit and great value. Just need to get the oil pressure and boost pressure inputs for it now. |
