- Wed Jan 06, 2010 6:50 pm #166302 hello all,

i am about to start in a supercharger adventure for my ej2 d16z6, i was wondering if any ne could help me and not just say go turbo im ding this to test my skills with a spanner save some money and have a streetable power. i have sold my rx7 and mazda 323 gtr to get some funds to start a buisniss so this is a bit of a budget build. any advice or construtive critisizem is welcome

The plans to keep temps down.

i have an eaton supercharger from a bmw mini (1.6l) eaton 45 i think, i am hoping to run a small topmount and water/methonal injection to keep temps down. the manifold with be heat coated and heat wrapped with a custom heat sheild and cold air feed to help stop heat soak on the supercharger its self.
another step to keep temps down vented hood and switchable fan to help the cooler and or supercharger cool down.

What i have to work with

the d16z6 has bin fully rebuilt using only the best parts inc a new low milage head this has had polish and ported work done inc the intake manifold. bin slightly skimmed lightweight flywheel brand new clutch stage 1. lightweight pully with harmonic balancer extra pully for the supercharger. adjsutable cam gear, wire tucked fuel pressure regulator, oil cooler. probs a little more work i cant rember. also has a hondata s100 fitted

Things i need to know?

wat injectors to run thats cheap

Do you have access to DSM/Mitsubishi 450cc injectors over there? They were in the turbo eclipse and talon. There are blue and black ones. Both require a resistor box when used on our cars. The DSM 450cc's are all over the US, a set of 4 used goes for $50. The resistor box is another $10-15 used. I went this route and saved a lot of $$$ for doing a little extra wire cutting & soldering.

what bypass valve to use

Synapse seems to be the newest design, but pricey. Any will do... HKS, Greddy, XS, plenty to choose from. I run a HKS knockoff because I like the sound and it was cheap.

what else am i missing out im sure theres summink

Fuel pump - I suggest a Walbro 255 LPH
