dayum...i wish i knew how much all the missing parts would cost

cherrington17 10-13-2008 11:26 PM

possible to run twin supers?

clutch1 10-13-2008 11:28 PM

Where there's a will theres a way Cherry, but it'd be some ridiculous fab work to make it fit and setup right.

deathwish666 10-13-2008 11:34 PM

yea you would def have to be very experienced in making stuff outta metal haha

...but really...if anybody is considering splitting it...i might be up for it

NickAlero2000 10-14-2008 06:20 PM

hahahah look at how a super charger works, and ponder that. wash rinse repeat. and then avoid asking that question :)

NickAlero2000 10-14-2008 06:28 PM

HEAVILY modifying one so both could run off the same pulley, each one goes to two cylinders
impractical but possible...anything is with the right amount of money

Beholder88 10-14-2008 06:46 PM

I think you could run two, but you would have to be doing it on a V6 or V8, and you would have to completely re-design the intake manifold. I think it would look pretty wicked actually.

jayson_waltz 10-14-2008 07:30 PM

possible for 2? yes. plausible? no.
but really if you can get two for around a grand, that would be an awesome deal for 2 people. wish i had some oney to blow right now.

btw, for the fun of it, twin superchargers.

OK...sure you could do it, but by the time you spend the money to get 2 superchargers to fit on a 2.4 and then finding out you'll need a bigger engine bay to actually fit the engine into, you could've spent the same amount of money on a turbo setup and engine build and be pushing 500whp by now :p

I just bid on these, I'll go up to around 1300 on my own. If I win and someone wants to purchase the other one, let me know. Otherwise, I'm just going to save it for the future, that way I can send it out to be ported and polished without having to take the other one off my car.

Also, to everyone asking questions about how you buy the parts.....I called my local GM dealer and they claim that there is no way to purchase the parts individually. You have to order the entire thing together. They don't have a "install kit" either.

The reason I know this is because a guy is selling only the supercharger on J-body for around 800. I called to ask if they have a kit that includes everything but the supercharger, or could I just buy every additionaly piece individually and the answer was of course, no, as stated above.

If anyone has any intel contrary to this, please post that info up with a good contact number. It would help all of us out.

Cliff8928 10-15-2008 12:53 PM

I know the manual for the Ecotec supercharger has a breakdown of all the parts with part numbers, however they're all parts used on other cars (like the cobalt). I'd check the manual for the 2.4 one and see.

sburke 10-15-2008 04:39 PM

The one the guy is selling does come with a manual, so that is the route I plan on going. I figure there has to be at least one shop out there that sells the pieces individually. It's just going to take a lot of shoping around to find it.

Alero_1986 10-16-2008 11:24 PM

That'll be a nice buy if the bids aren't too high. Hopefully you can get a hold of the parts you need.

kwhauck 10-17-2008 09:59 AM

still $800 and 11 hours to go!!!

sburke 10-17-2008 01:59 PM

Yup, I'm pretty excited about that.

kwhauck 10-17-2008 06:50 PM

2 hours still $800, hmmmm.......maybe i should bid and then part the 2 kits out........would that make me an asshold if i did?
