supercharged TB motors

Post by j-top paj »

anyone done it? just after some specs and pics etc....
i have been reading all the turbo threads and thinking of going turbo.... or twin turbo :twisted: but ive also been thinking about a supercharger too.
i went wheeling up at the wattagans and a dude that came on the trip had a GQ with a blower on it but i cant remember if it was TB or TD :?

I forget the name of the place, someone here will know it for sure, I think it's called the 4WD workshop in Frankston. He's done heaps of supercharged TB's and says it's the only way to go. I spoke to him a while ago, and he really knows his stuff. You know someone is good when they do all the development work on a dyno and then don't give out their custom cam grinds, ie not mass produced and better.

yep, its called 'the 4wd workshop'. He is a really good mechanic and knows a shitload. But, he may be pricey. It cost me $2300 to fix up my L28 motor, and that wasnt even a rebuild. But it runs sweet as now though, he did some very good work to it.
