Supercharged B16A build.. need some help..


sparx my power estimate was based on race gas and the LHT aftercooler, otherwise you are correct, without those parts 220-240 is about all you will get.
 
Thanks again for all the input! We are going to try to push it as far as we can without destroying anything. we are probly going to tune it ourselves I have some expirence in tuning and so do the others in on this build.

Im sure all our expirence well result in a fairly decent tune. and if we incounter any poblems Im sure the knowlegeable members here at ek9.org can give us some input.

We still have not started the build we are still in the planing stage, but as soon as we start I will post pics of our progress.
 
If you're going to be using this on the track - drop everything you're building now and get the LHT kit.

Get the race sized cooler too. They have a new reservoir tank that enables you to properly fill the system.

Don't drop the compression. Roots style chargers love compression. But that's also the problem - so keep it at the stock 16A level or a slight bump with a 2pce headgasket is all you need.

SCs are also very sensitive to intake temps. Isolate and cool plus run a short intake pipe with a header that has large primaries like the Kamikaze mentioned above.

Water injection is not necessary as many have found that it damages the rotors more than it does any good... however, it also depends on where you inject the water. A properly setup LHT cooler can see 260whp...but after that, the SC becomes a flamethrower - if your power goals are high, you're better off designing a Rotrex system.

All the linear power delivery of a roots SC but with potential power of a Turbo system - at a cost... as always.
 
I'm thinking to install JRSC on stock B16A2, and i'm not into getting max power out of it. Just want exta power and torque. What about cooling? Increasing temperature may lead to detonation.

Where to put water injection so it doesn't damage the rotors? Or is there some better way of cooling?
 
I'm not well versed enough in the JRSC to state where there might be a location to prevent rotor damage, but if you think about it for a moment, any attempt to cool the intake charge with water at an even rate of distribution has to come before the rotors.

You could attempt to plumb 4 ports of water to feed it directly with an atomizing pump... I'd sooner get the LHT kit - but even so, it's not necessary if you don't intend to track the car and you use it primarily on the street. AutoX guys don't have a problem with heatsoak since their runs are all under 2mins or less. The added weight disadvantage is not worth the complexity despite the reliability and potential power.

Just make sure you get it mapped right and the Fueling doe right as ive got a Charger on mine thats running well under power due to a piss poor map !!

Running it on a B16B though !

and your trying to sell this . that aint going to help you sell it lol
 
U should sleeve it too a 84mm an some sleeves comes with sleeve guards an go low compresion u should atleat 25 pounds an be pulling hard. I got a fully built Ls vtec on a full race turbo kit its a dash70 pushing 30 pounds on Je 9-1 compression pistons.

This is about supercharging with a JRSC and moderate/reliable power gains and a budget well below your setup and not about your setup in general.

. well its just my opinion over here in the us superchargers are not really around most people have turbos
