supercharger???..

[kenjin]

hey..well last night i ws searching the net and i found some superchargers..since they didnt have any thats made for accords i was wondering if it is possible to fit a supercharger thats made for 97 preludes in to my 91 accord...

If I remember correctly, you'll run into issues with the firewall being in the way.

someone did it with a jdm h23 vtec but im pretty sure he modded the firewall

here are the bay pics of the h23 SC bay.

why not just put it in place of the Power steering pump and go without?

or make a bracket to put it out just a little further forward next to it. or even under where the A/C compressor is.

I'd advise looking into turbos. There is a lot more flexibility than you have with a supercharger. Supercharger = alot of traction problems that are hard to solve. Turbo = progressive electronic boost control. Something to consider.

wow this is deffinitely something interesting to look into I had a 97 gtp grand prix with that supercharger (eaton m90) that was rear end totalled a few weeks ago I think it may still be sitting in a junkyard in town

well yes and no. traction problems are a possible issue, but thats because superchargers have an advantage over turbos. No Turbo lag. and that can be a big deal for specific builds.

And traction can be a problem, but i don't see how they could all be extremely hard to solve. hell, thats why you tune it.

and everyone says go turbo. go turbo when someone throw's up a supercharger idea. i have my own build i would like to get into. but i lack $$$ for anything.

Hmmm interesting...it actually looks like it fits (but its a tight fight though)..

[kenjin]

well if it doesnt fit..i thnking to cut the hood and mold a scoop over the supercharger??..is it a good idea??.

I don't think that would be a good Idea unless you want to be laughed at...

why would he get laughed at? hasport did it with their k24/sc crx:



a scoop wouldnt be nessecary, but a bump or a hood-spacer diy might.

Traction problems can be overcome with throttle control, LSD, good tires, and a proper suspension setup (including traction bars). A supercharger setup isn't good for crazy horsepower anyway. It'd be best suited to a quick street car, autocross car, or road race car. To me, the main benefit of a supercharger is a reliable, repeatable power curve. The supercharger is crank-driven, so there's absolutely no way to overboost unless you change the pulley to do so!

The JRSC won't fit without modifying the brake master cylinder. Not terribly difficult, but still not a problem-free install.

And yes... it IS possible to mount a supercharger somewhere other than the intake manifold. It's also possible to intercool it. Centrifugal superchargers are just that... the Procharger would work wonders. That isn't the only option, though.

A bump would be fine.

But a scoop that far back?

I think it would look quite funny.

All this talk about superchargers is getting me excited.
I wanna put one on my Maxima.
