If you do, please post a copy here, or PM/e-mail me, or anything.

Heck, if anyone has the Camden bloswer instructions, post those, too.... seems like there have been some sales of ones without instructions lately. We should have this stuff out there, just in case....

Nope, and without the instructions the kit is worthless. However, being a good humanitarian, I'll be glad to take it off your hands so it doesn't gather dust in your garage.

Actually, back in the day of the RX7 Club of America (Rotary Rocket Mag providers), how to's were sent out time to time on aftermarket performance upgrades. And I believe there was a how to for the Nelson kit. When I get home next month I'll have to dig around and see if my memory is correct.

In the meantime, let me know what the shipping costs are so I can reimburse you for taking that obsolete door stop off your hands.

Honestly I can't understand why people are still interested in these. Why use a relatively low torque engine to turn a pulley when it has phenomenal exhaust energy that can spin a turbine.

Paxton/Nelson Supercharger Procedure

Step 1.) Install S/C
Step 2.) 'tune'
Step 3.) Brag about your 13.6 at the strip.
Step 4.) Brag some more about the massive torque.
Step 5.) Post your blown rear rotor story.
Step 6.) Get budget rebuild.*
Step 7.) Remove S/C.
Step 6.) Post up for sale.

*Optionally you may repeat step 2 through 6 as many times as necessary to attain satisfaction or complete financial ruin.

Believe it or not I have an issue of Rotary Rocket somewhere. I tried looking for it but I just moved, and I'm not sure what I did with it. I will see if I can find it.

Were the how-to's in the magazine or something else? The one you're looking for may be in the issue I have...

Edit:I just found it. It's an issue from September 1988, and while they don't talk about superchargers in it, they do caution me that any performance upgrades might void my Mazda factory warranty... lol

HOLY THREAD NECROMANCY, BATMAN!

I'm likely about to purchase the Paxton/Nelson setup, and need the instructions. I've contacted Paradise Wheels (who currently supports the kit), but was wondering if anyone here happens to have the instructions handy, as they're closed for a few days.

Thanks

Collin
