thinking of pumping out a couple of supercharger kits for rb twincam engines. already made 1. 8-9 psi. switch on and off mad max style. made my r32 rb20 go like a rocket (dump 4th and it lights up 18 inch wheels) and confuses lots of people. fine on standard computer. just want to gauge interest before pricing.

Also, if you're using a Toyota supercharger, please make sure its a new one. Using second hand stuff in a kit is cool and all but not quite professional. Pretty backyardy.

Please advise on parts used and what exactly the mounting procedure is.

Note: to others reading, hears a disclaimer. DON'T BE A C*NT AND STEAL THIS DUDES IDEAS. WE WILL FIND YOU.

...supercharger kits for rb twincam engines...8-9 psi. switch on and off mad max style. made my r32 rb20 go like a rocket (dump 4th and it lights up 18 inch wheels)...

There is bending the truth.

Then there is lying.

Then there is speaking shit.

And then there is that statement.

And then there is you

Your obviously insecure about something.

built not bought..... pfffft. with a shopping list that big. you got something to prove??

ill try get sum pics tomorrow you scallywag

isn't built not bought referring to modifying a car yourself rather than buying one which has previously? meh superchargers, if they were any good they'd be being used on RB30's already.

They are. Youtube it.

Lol god people like you make me laugh. Typical response of a person that knows he is losing an argument, having to make it personal with attacks, typical brain function of a weak minded individual. I'm not going to bother arguing with you, i dont need to, because i know what is possible and what isn't. So ill just wait for you to post up your "RB supercharger kit" that runs 9psi and "lights up 18" tyres in 4th gear" and let the good people of SAU judge whether or not your speaking shit :P

Hooray for the NA section =\

sooooo...9psi on a standard NA computer, with the standard fuel reg injectors etc and makes enough grunt to smoke 4th gear....wait isnt it school holidays in some states already....

All it's going to be is an SC14 Toyota supercharger for around the $300-$600 mark with some custom brackets made up. It'll rob the car of some down low power and make up for it in the midrange and up top to about 140-160rwkw, if that. Nothing new. Hardly 4th gear tyre frying.

9PSi... 2.5L... Tyre frying in 4th... WITH a clutch dump...

Where am I going wrong? 14PSi turbo'd... 3.0L... Only shreds the tyres in 3rd... With the push of the throttle... Should I try a clutch dump in 4th?

Or are we talking you only chirped the tyres in 4th? Cause I can mention mine unsettles across the start finish line of OP GP in 4th... But that's just not fair...

maybe you weren't driving in pooring rain with bald tyres on a road where a car had just had it's sump plug come out.

all that saying "frying the tyres in 4th" says to me is that you either talk a lot of shit or really need to stop buying the absolute cheapest tyres on the market.

and there is no way a rb20 could fry the tyres in 4th on a stock ecu.

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
