Does anyone have rear wheel horsepower dyno figures for a TR6? I'm looking for some comparison numbers to the dyno run we just did with the Moss Motors prototype supercharger kit. Information would b

While something is always better than nothing, comparing dyno numbers from different dynos, different cars, different conditions, etc. is about as useful as ice is to Eskimos... A chassis dyno is a

Henry, how are you going to hide a supercharger? It's one thing to disguise your NOS bottle as an accusump, but I think this could be tough to hide. Don While something is always better than nothing,

Yeah, I am curious too. Did Henry figure a way to morph a GT6 motor to look like a TR4? If he could do that hiding a supercharger would be a walk in the park. Leo

You make a good point about the dyno info. That's the reason I'm trying to get as much data as possible. I'm trying to get a feel for typical rear wheel horsepower for a stock TR6 rather than actual

I'm thinking a supercharged 2.5L conversion Vitesse would be the cat's But then I'm a sucker for strange car combinations. I did figure the MGB supercharger kit will fit a Magnette ZB. Kelvin. ______

The V8 comparison is pretty accurate. The car does feel pretty close to some 302ci powered ones I have driven. An intercooler is out, as the blower mounts directly to the intake runners. There are s

There should be lots of concerned. the preparation for a blown engine is different than a N/A engine. You are not concerned very much with volumetric efficiency because of the blower, but at the same

Although I agree with what Henry says, there is really no excuse for not getting close to the same results. These guys are just too lazy to calibrate their machine. We once did some pulls and the res

It's always a good idea to have low compression for a blower motor, but not completely necessary if you have some other method to control detonation. A modern knock sensor and computer would do nicel

I've had lots of experience with turbos on that engine . Just as a scale to think about, generally 5 pounds boost (turbo) will give a 30% power increase, 7 pounds gives approx 50% and 15 pounds 100%.
