Update: S5 Super charged FC

Orginal Thread:
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=535512&highlight=camden

Alright, I took the car the Buttonwillow race way this weekend, www.buttonwillowraceway.com/ , and the car ran like a champ. I was able to pass up RX-8's and stock T2's in the straits.

As promissed, here are some videos of the car:
*Notes: Video ending with high are High resolution ~20-30mb.. Videos ending with low are low res.. <10mb.

Having some fun with a S4 sport, with full suspention, exhuast, intake and 235's racing rubber. I was still able to catch up to him and make him nervous enough to loose it. I was running shitty 205's street tires in the rear, with 205 aziens in the front.. which really slowed me down.

Same person/car as above.. but I gave him a second chance to out run me, he looses it in the same corner.

The car drove fine for about 7 hours of track time, water temperature didn't exeed 190 degrees, and cool down to 180 after the cool down lap.

The Super Charger did comsume oil though, It drank a bit of oil per 30 minute session.

It drank a total of 3 quarts durring the weekend, which was about 620 miles, 300 miles of which where track miles which were between 6-8k rms.

The super charger held up just fine in these conditions and boost stayed perfect.

The car plenty of power and was predictable as boost was controlled, and not just jumping at you like on a FD or turboII.

Feel free to ask any questions about this setup, if the questions haven't already been answered in the prevous thread.

Hope you guys enjoy the videos.

The car is for sell, check out :

actually, wasn't to much understeer, mot of the sqeeling noise was my rear trying to get out, and one tire spinning still it sitll has an open diff.

I only felt it under steer a bit on turn one, and when it started to rain a bit.

But better tires would have made a BIG difference, thats for sure.

Idk if this is in the right area to ask this.

But how much was your super charger, and how hard was it to install?

Any guesses on how much HP it added?
