Supercharging A Blacktop Zetec

The alternator has already been moved to the other side of the engine.

 

Bailey Performance has advised the owner that the blacktop can take around 12psi of boost before it needs its compression ratio reducing......seems a lot to me but im not better placed to advise.

Much easier to align pulleys than the sr2 charger....

The owner has supplied an intake which requires modification to fit with the charger....

Time for an update......

Because of how tight everything is, I've decided to leave the engines intake plenum until the end of the project so I know exactly what space I have left to play with.

So with that in mind, I have made the supercharger intake and I'm about to start the superchager outlet.....
