Testing $300 Amazon Supercharger: Will It Blow??

[@DISCOSHOEBOX]

The Aisin AMR supercharger rotors aren't plastic, they are Teflon coated. The same applies to the Toyota SC12 & SC14, they are Teflon coated. Spinning them too fast, generates a lot of heat - which causes the Teflon to delaminate. The supercharger you've installed is a Toyota sc14 which displaces the same as an Eaton M90. Try to keep the SC14 under 15,000 rpm and it won't delaminate. The biggest upgrade to a supercharged engine is to install a set of headers. For a supercharged engine the primary pipe size should to two sizes about what is normally used for N\A - 1.75 inch primary pipes into a single collector should do the trick. The supercharger should be governed - Toyota used these on the 1G-GZE and the throttle body was in front of the supercharger, the ducting then ran through an intercooler before entering the engine. Of course its your car, so do as you please. This is just a bit of information for you to gain some insight as to what you have bought.

[@The.Rad.Factory]

How do we figure out what rpm it spins at? We definitely plan to use an intercooler but had planned to keep the throttle body in stock location after supercharger but use a blow off valve in between.

[@Penguinscards]

[@Adam-nv9zo]

@@The.Rad.Factory awesome!!!

[@Soul_Popper]

Just did some digging on these and apparently they put out about 1500cc the same as an m90 but a lot more compact. Intercooling it is recommended since they’re so compact they produce a lot of heat. From what I read, they’re pretty reliable and have magnetic clutch’s for on off supercharger function, can be wired to only comes on at wide open throttle etc pretty neat little superchargers. I’m about to buy one.

[@The.Rad.Factory]

[@danielolah1606]

I'm definetly not an expert with superchargers but maybe putting an intercooler would be a good idea, main reason not to cool the air but to filter out the plastic pieces in case something bad happens. Love theese budget builds tho

[@The.Rad.Factory]

Yep great minds think alike! It arrived yesterday so stay tuned!

[@lukebender9635]

Dumb idea just add another wheel

[@terenceih193736]

An intercooler is just open piping with cooling fins essentially 😂 not going to “filter” anything

[@The.Rad.Factory]

@@terenceih193736 the plastic chunks that came off the last one were pretty big, but yes we're going to add a screen as well

[@manwithnoname734]

Or just add a second supercharger

[@AdamOpheim]

An M90 supercharger used is super cheap and easy to find on marketplace or even ebay. MUCH more reliable and likely less than the $300 you spent! Best of luck tho!

[@The.Rad.Factory]

yes but no one would watch

[@frivera735]

People watching want to see a cheap solution that actually works IMO. That way they can do it too.

[@tpghl5225]

But what’s the fun in that lol

[@Tarmo1998]

Put an intercooler on that so it catches the fragments if the rotors explodes and also dump valve in pressure side is recommented so it dont cause too much pressure when coming off the throttle, done that on volvo engine before.

[@The.Rad.Factory]

Yes! That was my thinking too! Intercooler arrived yesterday stay tuned!

[@chefgiovanni]

Yeah, and the lowest quality supercharger will surely smoke the motor and itself into oblivion. Amaz.... sells so much disposable junk.

[@kellynull7099]

Get some stainless steel wire mesh and put between the supercharger and the intake to help keep the plastic from going into the engine.

[@Sir_Leelord]

what about putting a screen between the supercharger and the intake so in case the fins shatter it won't mess up the motor.

[@cliffordplasd8239]

Here is a simple rule of thumb. The more friction the more heat, heat kills parts and power.

[@The.Rad.Factory]

Copy that

[@dsmmonster]

A few years ago I installed a supercharger from a Mercedes compressor in a Miata 1.6 it made 165 hp in the dyno..

I put a amr500 and a 46mm Mikuni on my wifes 84 subaru GL. I loved it right up until it tore up all the front end drive components (ate the hubs and destroyed a shaft). It originally only had 76hp and the carb and SC are both rated to 150hp. Honestly I'm not sure what its making but the bottom end grunt is fantastic. Now I just have to retrofit modern knuckles and suspension into the old girl to get it back on the road.

This is probably going to Rob More power than it makes not to mention an air restriction. It would be a good idea to take the charge pipe off where it connects to the charger and make sure that the holes are the same size and if not poured it out also probably wouldn't be a bad idea to Port the exhaust side either to match the diameter of the exhaust so you're not creating a air restriction. Also probably be a good idea to add a screen or a intercooler so if it does fly apart it doesn't go straight into the engine and you need a boost gauge you can always change the pulley size to make more boost

On my Dyers 671 supercharger i was told to run my belt a bit loose. Turns out that's correct as the belt, counterintuitively, tightens up as it heats up. Running too snug it then tightens up enough to put tension on crank pulley which in turn can cause main bearings to wear more heavily leading to early engine failure.... At least on a street driven ride like my pink '64 Corvette ProStreeter. rick in Tennessee.
