  • My idea on how to get the M90 to work, maybe with a innercooler.

    I like to dydream a little I think I sort of came up with a way to make the m90 to work.

    -mount the M90 sideways on the left side of the motor, maybe even slightly upside down for better belt use.
    -Put a throttlebody on the back so its facing the firewall, and run smoem tubing to put it up where all the other CAI's lead to.
    -make the an pipe with the compressed air exiting on the underside part of the supercharger have it go over the top of the motor through a intercooler(I am not 100% how they work, but I looked over a little at www.howthingswork.com) then run the piping to front of the upper intake into the motor.
    -Mount an SS hood or something similar and have it it mounted where the innercooler gets the most air flow. Similar to the WRX guys.

    It may not be the most efficient but I think it would work and you could get some decent boost out of it. Didn't he get the DC for pretty cheap also?

    I must commend you for your ability to think "outside the box" Actually, a friend of mine mentioned the exact same method last night. The only 2 down falls that I could think of is that there wouldn't be enough room to mount this anywhere else, my friend mentioned where the A/C compressor is currently located, but the M90 is awfully large. Secondly, you would need to have a custom adapter made out of metal to fit the bottom of the S/C with the same bolt pattern as the lower intake manifold. This could be done, but the cost far exceeds any benefit.

      Better idea, make a bracket, that connects from bottom of M90 to where the intake manifold is, mount it on top of that, cut a hole in the hood, make it look like an old school blower. [img]smile.gif[/img]

      I figure istead of telling people how many weighs it will not work why not try a couple tht do.


      Feasible couldn't you hack up a stock intake manifold off a GTP, and weld some peices to make it got form a scare to a tube to hook up to the system.

        I doubt you could do it in stock location, due to the fact that you would have some pretty serious hood clearance issues, and you wouldnt be getting the boost back into the engine. The only way *I* see getting an air to air working is to have the S/C mounted somewhere other than the stock GTP location.
