a procharger build and have a few questions

1. Hp estimates?

2. Correct me if i'm wrong on parts list.
injectors
tune
procharger
intercooler
belt tensioner
new belt
custom piping
custom mounts

3. And... how difficult do you think it would be i know it's not an intake or nothin but i'm j/w

 

ok i know you are just wondering and testing the water and stuff but here is my honest opinion, and remember, i am in the same shoes as you (well was..)

dont do it.

adding F/I to your vehicle is not a easy job, you might think you have it all figured out, but you really have no idea, unless you are paying somone to do it and have alot of money to play with..then go for it...if not..sorry to say, but its out of your league, as it was mine and still is out of mine.

 

well i'm doing it for my auto tech class so i'd have help but i guess if it's really that hard then i don't have to do it

 

if your doing it for a class...cool...but acctualy doing it..is hard...

instead of procharging...do turbo.

 

hey, that a bonus, free help from class... my little brother is in an automotive class at school, and every once in a while he can bring his car in and **** around with it

 

Not only is this task difficult, but from what I understand and you being in high school, I'm guessing this is your daily driver. Don't do stuff to impress people. You obviously bought this car because you liked it. Who cares what other people think about your car?

 

check out speed mafia for procharger kits and brackets

 

go with the turbo.... its at least a kit that you buy not piece together

 

yea i've been looking at the one they have but i'd still need diffrent mounts and stuff

 

Not to mention the clutch and axles will need to be upgraded along with a killer tune

 

Man, I wish I had an auto class. I'd be all over that turbo.

 

i have an auto if i had a manual i would give a **** but the auto's are slow *****

and are the auto's rated 4 350 lb tq?

 

yeah ok auto your fine

 

well ive got to thinkin about it and... it'll just be cheaper for me to buy ss/tc and will still have warrenty and a manual like i wanted origonally and a HELL of a lot easier on me what do you guys think cause if i procharged my car it'd still be auto and i want a manual with a little more power

 

Hey, you know what? Since you seem really ambitious with your potential projects, can you by the JBP Vortex header, install it on thr 2.4 and make a how to?

 

and wait four months to recive it..

clear image ftw!

 

IMO if your gonna do FI then just do a turbo kit, dont use a procharger

 

just turbocharge it.

 

if you have to ask how difficult it's going to be don't do it yourself. I'm not trying to be a dick. If you don't know everything involved with doing a custom f/i setup you don't wanna get into it unless you have a TON of time to keep the car out of commission and learn what you're doing.

 

you can always s/c it. it's cheaper, gets you in the FI world with lots of support to back you up, and in the future...you can sell your kit to another 2.4/2.2 owner and use the proceeds for bigger and better things...ie snail

 

a procharger is a supercharger...

 

not to be a dick but if your asking these sort of questions your probably not ready to do this build. If your dead set on doing something like this to your DD (im assuming) i would suggest getting some books and reading up. Also id say turbo would be better if you wanted the most power.

 

I know. I was referring to the m62.

 

you guys are starting to scare me away from going turbo

 

i went turbo and would do it again if that means anything.
