My supercharged FC - work in progress
Just wanted to post a few pics of my 91 FC that I bought from my best friend two weeks ago down in NC. I only paid $1700 for the car and s/c. The car dark blue with a light blue interior. Before I bought this car I had never seen one this color before. The only issues with the car is carpet and the peeling clear coat on the hood, roof and spoiler. I plan on taking care of both in the next 30 days or so. I drove down to his house this morning to install the s/c but ran out of time before I had to drive back to VA.....cant wait to finish up. We will finish the install next weekend...hopefully I'll get the rest of my mods during the week. I'll post more pics once the install is complete.
Btw the hood is not closed in the pics and the blue carb hat will be replaced by a polished one that I already have. I'm going to fab a 3.5" cold air intake with aluminum intake tube and cap it off with an AEM filter. All my gauges came from Prosport....they will be installed in a custom gauge pod made of fiberglass. |
Wow...Thats a steal....is it for sale? lol
Good luck with it, might wanna clean up the motor a bit to give it its shine, not every day you see a SC rotary motor... |
There is a company that sells triple gauge pods for the 2nd gen, but either way thats nice find...keep us posted with the build up...hows the car run with the super charger

good stuff...

not a bad deal at all.. good luck.. ill be keeping posted as to how this works out for you!

Forget the carb hat cone filter thing, go with an normal 14" air cleaner. It will fall flat on it's face at 6500 rpm with a carb hat.
|
And the list of S/C'd FCs gets longer- me likey. Dig the color, too :D

I tried this K&N carb hat with a 4" opening and a huge K&N filter, and it sucked.

since you have a throttle body instead of a carb you may have more success than I did, good luck with it.

Got to drive my car for the first time today but ran into a fuel issue. I think I have a bad injector. Will try to post a video once I get the issue resolved but for now here are a few pics I took today.

One of my friends has a 91 NA that is the same color. Great color, and good luck witht the build.
|
Looks good Will! Maybe next trip down to Carolina I'll have you stop by and help me put in my radiator. :)
|
Thats really cool. Post some videos and more pictures when you get it running correctly!
