supercoupe SC.

[texmirage]

Was in a bone yard today. and found a super charger. I have a 94 gt. could I buy a top intake and use that S.C. Yes I understand that there will be some modding needed. Its from a super coupe.
My thought is use a v8 SC intake. make an adapter and bolt the SC SC to the motor.

Any thoughts????

i thought the T-bird SC's came only with V6 engine's?

 

[texmirage]

they did. But I'm NOT using the v-6 intake, I'll find one that fits the 5.0 motor and make an adapter plate of some sort.

Sounds like unchartered territory here.. never heard this one before...tis intriquing just the same...

Seems like it would be too small

Do a search for m90 5.0 installs. It's been done before many times. I don't think you'll be able to mount it on top of the engine like on the V-6 though. Most of the setups I've seen have the sc mounted towards the side of the engine.

It is a small sc so you won't see much boost from it. I would suggest having it ported. And run an intercooler, those eaton's put out a lot of heat.

What year SC is it? The 94+ SC's have a better m90 on them. They have coated rotors which give them an extra 15hp at a lower boost level IIRC.

Its the last body style they made. Not the 89 90 body style. I tried to search 94 / 95 with no luck. I'll try a search on that thanks.
The whole set up is there. IC, SC, piping and so on.
I know i can make the SC fit. The pulley / belt is what I'm worried about.

This would prolly be ideal for us with high compression Mike. .. think about it.

I don't see any way a single m90 would support our power level. The larger m112 on the 03 Cobra's are usually only good for around 500rwhp....Now something like this might work. SCTC - SuperCharged Turbo Coupe

Oh..I didn't realize that's how they worked. I thought it would add power on top of what you already have.

Well as you know N/A sucks air in and boost pushes air into the engine. Our engines are sucking in more air N/A than the M90 can push out. That's why the blower makes 10-12# stock on a V-6, but the same setup on a stock 5.0 will only make something like 6-7#. More efficient engine = less restriction = less boost.
