Re: Remote m90

That looks like very doable in a 3.8. Someone step up and do it aleady.lol

Agreed!! Go for it Steve lol

Hmm... I do have an M90 sitting in my garage.. but no money or means to help fuel, tune, or otherwise make it work.

How much you want for it? Lol what gen?

Re: Remote m90

Now does the T-bird m90 work in the same way as the gtp one? Because the t-bird one was intended to be remote mount...

And when you talk about the cast iron heads are you referring to them stock or is that limitation with the heads fully PP'd?

And lastly would you need to run oil lines to the m90? Or is it a self contained unit as far as oil goes? (Ya dumb question I know, but I haven't had an m90 in my hands to actually look at one as of right now...)

Yes, it needs oil.

You'd be better off going direct mount like Gutless did because with remote mount you will experience some lag like centrifugal SC, but not as bad as turbos. With direct mount it's instantenous boost. That's why big block drag racers prefer roots most of the time.

Newer properly sized turbo's have no lag.

The only "Lag" from a CSC or roots is because they need RPM's to build the boost, so the amount of PSI is is linked to rpm.

It needs oil but it's self contained in the coupler area.

Actually CSC acts like the engine and boost is linear. Root blowers you get the whole boost at a low rpm. Turbo, yes it depends on the size. My former WRX do have a lag.

Dude I have no idea.. I know its not from a GM 3.8, and I know I got it for 20$.

Roots blower psi output is directly linked to how fast the blower is spinning. At high RPM the blower spins faster meaning more boost ;)

For giggles this weekend I'm going to take the m62 I have sitting around and see how it fits in the gap where my ac used to be. I know the m62 is smaller overall, but does anyone know if the length is the same as a m90?

Depends what generation M62 and what it's off. The one off the 3800 series one is pretty close I think.

hahaha wow, needs a rebuild im assuming? lol

They are fairly easy to rebuild fyi. Local GTP forums can usually get a gen III M90 around $50 or maybe less.

I believe it is almost 2" shorter than the m90

Re: Remote m90

Hey Mike,
I have a spare M62 and M90 if you decide you want to go that route. You can have them real cheap. The M62 would fit better but from what I've read, you need to inter-cool them.

Re: Remote m90

I may end up contacting you Tony, but I need to get the car straigtned out and running perfectly before I can start playing around...for now I can toss around ideas lol.

Car should be on the road within 2 weeks with the new trans (fingers crossed everything is good) then I need new front tires, and alignment (Active green and ross are goofs)...and I need a tq arm that doesnt place one end on the trans.

As soon as I got those squared away, I want to start working on this.
