You should send the bad AMR500 to get a quality overhaul for a blower shop improve bearings and oiling and seals maybe new rotors. Then test both a stock cheapo with an optimized rebuild. Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’d find that really entertaining for comparison.

[@american7169]

Seen alot of vids where the amr is super loud, but robot cantina has one that is quiet and makes decent boost on a tiny diesel

[@maxpower700]

Because alot of the time they mount them wrong way round. Just like donut and ghpc😅

[@gadgetdeez7069]

Its only loud because people run them wide open all the time and either run them up to stall boost or just completely bypass when the throttle is closed. Thats a LOT of air or a LOT of pressure. Both of those things on a pds make a shit ton of noise. Put a throttlebody on the blower inlet and take the tb off the engine's intake and you'll have a very silent and far more tunable config.

[@Mrshotshell]

They make more noise when there's an outlet restriction like a closed throttle body which diesels don't have. At full throttle it's mostly the design of the blower. You can drastically quiet any blower down by putting a throttle body in front of it, which also reduces the amount of heat build up at part throttle. source: my m90 supercharged rx7 with two throttle bodies

[@AsswipeGarage]

​@@gadgetdeez7069"pds"? What's that?

[@bortsumpson2345]

My 2c, You dont need a bypass valve. You need to wire the throttle body on the engine wide open, (or better yet remove the throttle plate to remove a restriction) then fit a throttle body (with TPS) to the inlet of the supercharger. When the blower spins, it pumps air. UNLESS you throttle the intake. All the blown V8s, (6/71-14/71 etc) run either a carb(s) or mechanical fuel injection with throttle omates to control air on the intake of the supercharger. I put an sc14 (1.4ltres of air per revolution) on a datsun A15. (Drawthrough carb) the further i opened the throttle, the higher the boost went. I could hit wot off idle, and it remained at peak boost right through till valvebounce. Its a bit more faffing about to do this to your set up BUT you will get linea torque production. And stable consistant boost figures. The other thing i would do is, given how high the milage is on this wreck, id have the injector (i presume it just run one big one?) Cleaned and flowed. If the spray pattern is all over the show, youll have a harder time getting good fuel distribution. And therefore get less peak horsepower. Love your work btw

[@richardholdener1727]

a BOV will eliminate boost at idle and part throttle

[@bortsumpson2345]

A BOV isnt intended to flow continuously. A friend ran one on a CA18DET (which was supercharged instead of turbo) the noise of it moving 1.4 litres of air (per revolution) sounded like a satanic duck caller! (No, it really did) I have zero doubt youll make it work. But it seems like a compromise in my personal experience. Having manifold pressure being directly proportional to throttle opening would make tuning the load table maps a breeze too. I boosted 74 flywheel hp up to 124 whp on mine. It used to really cook in a 750kg car......

[@Rob-rp3cw]

Throttle body, injectors, it's a carburettor. I was under the impression, from back in the day that to use a blow thru carb setup you need to modify the carb to handle pressure, or run draw thru . Id try a simple spfi

Put a 100k ohme resistor in place of the air intake sensor location. It will richen it up quite a bit. Should be enough fuel for 5psi or more

[@echadmiyodea]

Good idea, but the MAT isn't able to add a lot of fuel, so I would use the coolant temp input instead. You can use a 10 turn potentiometer and use the knob to adjust the fuel to what you want.

[@freyja4954]

@echadmiyodea There are 2 problems using coolant temp sensor one. The car never actually goes into closed lope. 2. Because of this open loop situation, you won't have any fuel trimming at all from the 02 sensor. This way, when you're under cruise without boost, you'll have an overfuel rich. your miles per gallon will take a hit. Using the air tamp is the best way while still keeping the ability to have closed-loop.

[@Numer1Polak]

With the stock efi the most common way to do this is to use a non 1:1 fmu. Like the old supercharger setups on oxbodies and such. 5psi is about a third more air volume and the flow thru an orifice equation has a square in it. 45 psi stock and we need 33% more fuel so 1.33x1.33 = 1.77 times 45 = about 80psi will be the target extra 35 psi means you need a 7 to 1 fmu. might need a voltage clamp on the stock map sensor so it doesnt think its shorted.

[@timothymilam732]

Now you have me wondering what that would do for a 4 cylinder gasoline tractor that NA makes about 47 hp, and is fairly low compression with up draft carburetor on it. Yes I understand that the fuel has to be increased, and is easily enough done by installing a piece of pipe in a J configuration with the proper flanges welded on to each end to allow for a 2 barrel carb to be used on top of the pipe down to the factory manifold, are even a new manifold to work with a 2 barrel carb or whatever you want. By doing this this would allow for a custom header to be built as well giving several power adders at the same time. First thing is you eliminated the heat soaked intake that's built into the exhaust manifold too, bith of cast iorn and seriously one casting. Then you have cooler intake air with more flow capacity and same with exhaust. Eaay enough to put intercooler in front of radiator, and the fan blades move more than enough airflow to do both jobs equally as well. And what's a couple extra tubes running around on the engine and cooling system on a old tractor. There use to be a guy that was in Europe thar had installed an audi turbo on a 4 cylinder tractor that was wicked, but way too much power for it to be useful except as a toy because if you put a load behind it, all it was going to do is dig itself into China because of wheel spin .

[@richardholdener1727]

if you place the stock carburetor (or a bigger carb) in front of the blower-the added fuel will take care of itself

[@Omegaman1969]

Use a cheap microsquirt ecu with a single injector and a supercharged VW POLO (Fox) G40 throttle body. The throttle body on those cars has a twin butterfly to allow boost to recycle at idle and part throttle. The secondary bypass throttle only fully closes at WOT, a clever design.

[@lc46002]

XFI with it's single gap less piston ring may not be up to snuff for boosting??? I got 280,000 miles out of mine before the lower control arm mounting rusted and it was going to fail on the highway and turn hard into the next oncoming 18 wheeler. Just not the battle I want to be in. Besides they had brand new metros at the Chevy dealer(2020) There called Chevy Spark now.

[@gadgetdeez7069]

Wonder why it was so loud and why it died... oh yeah, it was open to atmospheric pressure the entire time and probably made 20+ psi on the back of that poor little throttle blade when you shut it. To do this correctly, you need to push the blower through a cooling brick straight into the intake. Put the throttle body BEFORE the blower. Not only will you not run the compressor at its MAX LOAD the entire time, but it'll actually be quieter. In fact, you shouldnt hear it at all until you floor it. Putting another blower in this same config, even with a blow off valve, i still see it shitting the bed. You need to restrict blower inlet airflow. You'll take a crap ton of load off the crank which will drastically improve idle as well.

How about this on a 1.6 versa ...... asking for a friend

[@1987FX16]

Do you think the afr problem is from bypassing the OEM narrow band O2?

[@richardholdener1727]

I don't think WOT is closed loop and we didn't have an issue with the nitrous. Positive pressure and 100+ kpa map reading at idle is likely the issue for idle quality
