if only i could undertstand it :(

i get around 140km from 15 litres which is about quater tank but mine is not stock it has a weber 34 adm and i have recurved the dizzy.

never filled full tank as it leaks from the filler :/

yes the bw in the 120y is 68

the MA09ERT seems to be a great little engine.

i found this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=mIQGkaMunYc at 2.47 it shows how the turbo and supercharger work.

from what i see when the supercharger is functioning it air intake path is from the turbo but when he turbo kicks in their is a bypass valve that bypasses the supercharger and the turbo outlet goes to the intercooler.

Anyone know what the factory valve looks like i tried to find one online but seems impossible to get information about it.

Thanks!

to come to think of it it seems to be more difficult than i thought because after the s/c is disengaged assuming its plumbed in series with the turbo charger the turbo will need a bypass valve to allow another air source?

and if you were to leave the s/c and turbo running together the difference in efficiency would cause a increase in intake temperatures i think.

Any one know of a bypass valve that could be used after the s/c is disengaged?



or maybe this whole idea isnt really worth it whats a good size turbo that pulls from 2000rpm up? the less laggy the better imo.

Thanks!

i think their from a b120 1200 ute

hi this tailshaft in centre road wrecker is it from a manual 120y? last time i went there was a yellow 120y in the yard but it was an auto? Was it in a car or in the area were they keep parts?


I did a conversion from auto to manual but i used the 56a gearbox and i couldt find the propshaft to suit a borgwarner 68

so i got a h165 propshaft and knocked out the rear flange (diff side) and put in the auto one. It works but is areound 4mm to short so goes in just over half way into the gearbox.

Thanks!

hi thanks for the reply the car will just be used for road used and spirited driving on mountain roads etc. i was thinking of two turbos but for some reasons it seems a supercharger will still give better low down power? and if i can control it with a presure switch thats sound good so you can keep the turbo in the efficiency range if im not wrong.

Thanks i am actually really considering this project in a months time. if anyone has any other ideas or issues with a setup like this please post.

hi so I always wondered why not supercharge for low down torque and then somehow at a certain rpm it cuts out and the turbo by then has spooled up. I think nissan made a similar system for the nissan march superturbo MA09ERT but i want to know what controls the engagement of the supercharger is it rpm based through a ecu? or is it psi controlled some how?

would this be easy enough to adapt to an a12? if so what is needed to control these? im guessing you could use either a amr 500 or sc12 supercharger or sc14???


Thanks!

came across this its not mine but can be useful to some people read the description of ebay ad.
