Supercharger On A Silvertop Zetec

[speedtripledan]

Nearly ready to fire the beast up, just boost pipes to finish and cooling pipes.

For what it's worth, my favourite bit? Fuel-rail and mount. (The other bits are nice too.)

That makes me so happy someone's noticed it! The mount was a sod to machine and I think more time and effort was spent on it than what it looks Edited January 27, 2017 by steamer

Its finally running,

 

Bit more plumbing to do, then off to the dyno

Dyno booked for weds next week, any guesses on bhp and torque its boosting approx 7 to 8 psi....

230 bop 210ib/ft

Should be similar to mine. Just ensure decent cooling on intake as every +1 deg = -1bhp approx so +20deg temp increase on intake air = 20bhp less

On a standard engine with 130 cams and 8psi..im gonna stick my head in the block and go for,

 

175bhp at wheels, 225 at flywheel if i may caveat that with a 5% fudge factor. Lots of variables to contend with there.

 

My favourite number is torque and im going at around 250 lbs/ft

 

Be good to get your full specs for a more accurate answer and also see the end results. As long as your AFRs are good then thats what matters, it will produce what it will produce. Ones things for sure, its gonna be rapid.

 

Good luck

standsrd 135bhp zetec other than supercharger work? If so my maths say 208bhp at 8psi

[speedtripledan]

Bare in mind it was 175bhp on webers before addition of a super charger and fuel injection. I.m hoping to get 250bhp and good torque.

[theduck]

What cams in it dan?

I'm going to ignore all mechanical factors entirely and go purely on Astrology.

 

With Mars in the ascendancy you will beat Terry on BHP and torque.

Since Venus is in your lower aspect will not get all the BHP that you want, which will leave you pleased with what you have acheived but wanting more.

Due to Uranus hanging out you will be wanting a bigger intercooler and a cold air ram scoop.

you know me well, nitrous is next Edited February 10, 2017 by DanE

I've got no idea whatsoever on supercharged Zetecs, so I'll wade in with 222bhp, 245ft.lb of torque. And clutch slip.

 

Or 278ft.lb, followed by a rod through the block
