2001-2002 LS-1 Vortech 5.7 v-9 sq g is the engine that the Supercharger System was made for. yes it is too much for a 3800 v-6 to handle. The f body 5.7l will improve to 470 horsepower and 462 ft/lbs of torque with ram air models and 448 horsepower and 449 ft/lbs of torque can be attained on non-ram air engines
You can put a supercharger on a stock engine it depends on how much boost you run wether your engine can handle it or not.
Yes. If the engine is built to handle enough boost. Volkswagen makes a production car with a twincharger (supercharger and turbocharger). The supercharger helps cancel out the turbo lag at low rpms
Yes a bigger engine up to a 5.7 liter V8 motor can be installed into the 99 Camaro. 9 times out of 10 the transmission will fit but it will last no time with that bigger motor since it was made to handle a 3.8 V6. So if you plan on swapping the engine then it will be just as wise to swap to a better Trans to handle that bigger engine.
I have been wondering the same thing, I have a 98 and I have been looking around the junkyard, the supercharger itself would only be $70, but I believe that there is an extra pulley on the Ultra that powers it. I have heard that the Buick tranny is not built to handle the supercharger and needs to be replaced about every 50k miles. Giving the car the extra power may cause other issues with valves, heat, and reducing engine life. I am going to look into this further by comparing the repair manuals, and hopefully try it out. Not only is a matter of the tranny being able to handle the power, but you do need the extra belt to power the supercharger. That would be the least of your worries. You would need to recalibrate (if not change) the fuel system to accommodate the increased air flow through the engine. Not worth the effort or cost.
actually you can fit a supercharger and turbo charger on any vehicle, but before you this you have to think of certain factors that you want to achieve. 1st do you want a direct response from lower revs or higher revs? 2nd is your engine tough enough to handle a certain amount of boost? When not you must consider of changing internals of the engine but its better to include also in the modification the gearbox and differential. if the best thing to do is to install a turbocharger and supercharger into the R31. supercharger gives you power in the lower revs it responses well when the engine reaches higher revs the turbo kicks in and gives you a better boost. consider also a big intercooler.
The stock Twin cam 2.4 can handle this kind of boost, GM actually made a supercharger (i have it in a sunfire 2.4), when installed by a GM dealer, the car kept his warranty on the engine and it boost 5 psi, can be modified to run like 7-8psi maybe 9psi but you have to cool the supercharger with alcool injection kit and I'm not sure if the internal part of your stock engine will handle it
Yes
no is not possible i do not think that an automatic transmission can handle all the added power plus you need to modify the ecu in order for the supercharger to work correctly.
Underneath the front bumper, center. Rubberized handle.
yes you can but keep in mind ur 4.3 litre engine needs to match up to the transmission or u'll have to change the transmission too but u also must change the rear end or the car will not run right or it could snap the rear end from more power being put on it then it can actually handle
go on google and type 1993 4.3 supercharger kit its about the seventh one down, I think the website is called wynjammer.com the kit is about $2000 bucks and looks pretty simple you probably would want 2 put pistons, rings, connecting rods, and maybe a new oil pump and a drop oil pan on the engine so it can handle the extra stress. You probably should have tried google first, DUMB ASS!!!!
