[Punk_Cruiser]

my ute will have more horsys, hope she will go bit better.

going with a vortech supercharger? nice. is it going on a petrol or diesel engine in your lux?

[nate]

vortech should give the diesel a nice kick along

[Punk_Cruiser]

it wouldn't happen to be one of those blower kits from capa now would it?

either way should awesome and definately unique.

[Celt's]

Coming along nicely mate, looks heaps better with the tray chop.;)

[NATHAN_91_HILUX]

its a petrol, im thinking of just turboing it now, gonna be a pain and will be easier to go with turbo kit, i only baught the v2 blower no kit.

[NATHAN_91_HILUX]

Coming along nicely mate, looks heaps better with the tray chop.;)

thanks mate, doesnt look so long now

[boof]

Blower will be easier and cheaper than turbo but wont make as much power in the cheaper setup ;)

Get the bracketry made to attach it and use a unichip or similiar to run it you should be able to run 5-8psi of boost in that configuration and will make nice low down power :D:D

The are also very thermally efficient. so you can get away with not running a intercooler. unfortunately vortec centrifugal blowers don't deliver the best low end torque as they are geared and designed for top end horsepower. There will still be an increase in low end torque just not as much as if you had used a roots or twin screw blower. The only centrifugal supercharger that seems to work like a roots or twin screw are the powerdyne superchargers. Check the capa info as there is plenty info there.

Go with the vortech as you already have it and it won't put as much stress on the engine as a turbo.

I reckon It should still be pretty sweet still. :D :D :D

[Celt's]

I am hoping to do something similar to what Boof said to mine, so i will be interested to see how it turns out & your thoughts.

[NATHAN_91_HILUX]

well i had a bit of fun monday, thought id have a go and nice wet clay track, i made it most of the way until my back wheel started sliding down the imbankment, i had 3 cars to pull me out, a trition which go bogged in the progress and a hilux that also didnt make it but the patrol got us all out :(

heres the picks took about 3 and half hours before we all got out

[Tower]

nice mate that mud doesnt look much but when your in it, it can bite you in the ar$e

[Luxxxy]

nice dual cab mate, pitty qbout gettin stuck but thats half the fun i guess!

[dirtfix]

Nice rig mate, wish i could have afforded a dual cab. Looks good with the tray cut down.
