Don't people like BBR run 275 hp with the standard charger on mini's?You guys seem to forget that it was originally designed for an engines between 2.0 and 3.0 litres. So should be good enough for the 6 if you want to run a lower power output |

a mate of mine uses an M45 SC (with a smaller pulley) on his suzuki swift (1.6 16v)topic/specs here and ran 203bhp in the beginning, now with NO changes whatsoever, he's only running 188bhp anymore. They say it's due to the charger that has 'ran in'. thats a loss of 15bhp :/ Not what I call reliable or a good buy... And he'd never do it again (thats why he bought a V8 now I guess  )________________________________________ Team WheelwhoreTeam Limited Edition Astor 306 Francorchamps RIP Virtual Blue 208 GTi quote: I  this place.

What supercharger do they use on the Lotus Elise SC? They claim that it doesn't need any additional cooling altho I suspect they're not using much boost. I believe it to be different to the one they use on the Exige  ________________________________________ My old man wrote me a letter from prison once.

I think the Elise is nearly 220bhp with no intercooler so they're obviously not the little hot air pumps like everyone assumes. ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

Lotus claim the Elise charger to be their own design. Or at least that's what the "Autocar" review saidOh and the early supercharged Exiges were only 220bhp. The Elise is 217bhp btw - just to split hairs lol ________________________________________ My old man wrote me a letter from prison once.

I like the chargers very much indeed, and I love what allen has managed with his car - in fact we've got an M90 winging it's way over from the states for the buggy at the minute (£115 delivered for a 15k mile old charger, can't turn that down, M62's are peanuts over there too) - it's just at this power level you're running well out of their efficiency peak, nearly half the power to drive the charger is going into heating the air up - you'd be better off with an M62 at this level, and you have less wear and tear on the charger too.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Very true, I wouldn't run one un-intercooled on a performance engine. Although upto 5-6 psi you may well get away with the charge temps. Are the 5th gen chargers rated to a higher max rpm then? Thought all the 45/62s were 14k limit? The elise's charger may well be eaton m45 guts in there own casing. ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

The reason I'm going for a 45 again is simply availability. As you say Phil, 62s are 10 a penny in the us but they're all fairly badly shaped for aftermarket conversion. The merc ones that show up over here are a pain as you need to swap the clutched pulley for a snout and they're stupid money.M90s are oversized and overweight for what I'm after unfortunatly as they're cheap aswell. I don't think 45s are overstressed at 250bhp on a 2.0 engine though. For 250 bhp on a 6 you'll need around 7-8psi from a 45 which is within it's efficiency range especially when intercooled. It's only when you start getting north of 10psi you get problems with heat and power tailing of up at the top. My charge temps at 8psi are spot on with a fairly small intercooler. Intact they're considerably better than my bosses imprezza with an aftermarket top mount intercooler!! ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

It's only when you start getting north of 10psi you get problems with heat and power tailing of up at the top. Yeah, probably not too much of a problem at those boost levels, not using much power to drive the charger anyway, but the efficiency tails off at all boost levels* north of 10krpm. Go on, you know you want to Shiny *They're actually more efficient at higher pressures because they have less comparatively less leakage past the rotors...part of the problem we've got with putting one on the buggy, needs loads of airflow but at a fairly low boost pressure = lots of leakage, hence the M90. A Rotrex would have been nice but this route works out a damn sight cheaper ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Allan as your the only one who seems to be talking from experience I'm gonna take your opinon as the correct one on this subject.If your getting 250bhp with a 45 bolted on to a standard Mi16 engine what would you expect to get from one with a simalar conversion to yours on a gti6 engine and since you did your conversion what sort of work has it done and what problems have you had with it?

Admittedly, the guy is an awesome driver, but it just go's to show how well these cars can handle with the right modification's |

Don't know whether lotus alter the casing as you say, but I have heard they run different bearings compared to a standard model. They're good to 16k on the lotus so that and a different casing/inlet porting may be the reason  ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.
