Wow Ahmad so this system would be an upgrade to remove the present stock supercharger on the 113k"s?

I can't wait to see your next motor!

If you don't mind.... I just might get a copy of your 'special' shortblock and put in on a stand in my garage for later.

You know I was looking at this thing and saying to myself that it looks like it could work on a N/*** motor! If you do it then WATCH OUT! You will have pioneered something for us NA guys to look at.

No problem. I can build you whatever you want. I'm starting to get sick of waiting for Darton and might build myself a Frankenstein motor to hold me over. Should still be able to hold around 1000

Yup I talked to Weistec and they are going to send one to me to test fitment and do some r and d for the na 55 guys. The blower is quite large in the back so that might be an issue, especially with the cars with close firewalls like 209

Well bro keep us informed which I know you will. Makes me think of keeping my C43 now. Will start building my mitsu this Saturday. Gotta carry the motor out to NJ where the car is and put it together. One project at a time. This whole thing is like drugs!!!!!!

If you and Weistec would like, I can swing by with the C55 to find out for sure. Not too far of a drive from Towson...

I have the 209 that I installed my old blower and new built Trans in at my house which is basically the same engine bay as yours but I will let you know. Installing a blower on a na 55 involves cutting the front cover which you probably don't want to do unless you're buying a blower

:)

i like where this is going to ,

about the custom bottom end, whats going inside? darton sleeves? CP/MAHLE pistons? CP-Carrillo rods?

this is gonna be interesting

by the way, try to figure out a better intercooler solution, i wish i can scrap the one under the S/C and put a front air-to-air.

GD luck with the build :-)

Darton sleeves, Oliver rods, and not sure on pistons yet. The Weistec blower is supposed to come with a 1000HP intercooler and water to air is more efficient than air to air. Especially with the trunk reservoir and big heat exchanger

Thanks, its such a pain waiting on other people for parts!
