Im doing a turbo setup for something different.
I cant sell the parts until mid next month. I just want to know if there is any interest in my custom kit.
Parts include:
SC14 blower.
Custom made blower manifolds with throttle body infront for drivabiltiy.
Strengthened Mounting brackets.
Idler pulley mount.
10PSI (Intercooled/probably would run 14PSI un-intercooled) blower pulley.
8PSI (Intercooled/probably would run 11PSI un-intercooled) blower pulley.
2 x Billet aluminium oversized idler pulleys to take up belt slack of smaller blower pulleys.
Billet aluminium throttle body spacer to take up the space of where the throttle body used to be on the plenum.
Polished stainless exhuast heatshield for under blower.
Brand new K&N pod airfilter (Large size).
Not included:
Intercooler & piping.
Reversed plenum. (Not really needed anyway/Piping can be routed differently to mine.)
Longer ignition leads.
BOV.
Belt.
Not that much more you need to get it going really. Car has run a 12.7 @ 110MPH.
Detailed pictures of front mounted throttle body with enginebay pics in this thread.
SC14 T/B move project
Looking for around the $2000 mark.

thats a clean set up u got there
NO Luke, Why mate. That's not a good idea.
But at least you will still have the knowledge i will need. Lol
Interested to see what it goes for?
Good on you mate
Hey mate did you get any vids of it after the tb move? Im interested in seeing/hearing it.
Nah i havent but i can tell you the sound difference is ALOT better. You dont get the vacuum cleaner sound anymore and now you can actually hear your exhaust note! But when it opens up it makes a sweet loud whine still.
Ive got to change my injectors today, if i can remember i'll upload a vid.
Awesome mate thanks, yer im going to do the throttlebody move half done now. But i was going to blow some splash on a twin tb setup and use the normal setup lol. Now i might just do the move then follow the crowd and go turbo or even see if i can make a twin charge setup. Vids would be apreciated mate, dunno how many times i watched your drive one lol.
Got a video of it today but cant find the damn usb cable...
Cmon man hunt for it!! I wanna see and hear it!!
Finally found it for ya. You owe me bigtime, i went through hell with getting this video uploaded....

man still sucks lots air sound
your running bov still ?
not that ya need it once ya move it
ya can get it even quieter than that
but sad to see ya setup go
Nice!! Glad you uploaded it, just need a 9 minute voyage one now ehehe. But thx heaps mate, was curious to hear the sound compared.
Yeah its very quiet compared to having the t/b after the blower.
Any other differences besides the obvious noise? Different peak times or different accelerations? Does air stay trapped in the intercooler when you back off the throttle givin a half second response after taking foot off the accelerator?
The only downside to having the t/b infront is the vacuum.
Vacuum fills the intercooler and piping acting like a massive plenum.
Any hoses without metal inside them will be crushed in.
I dont notice any lag but its not as crazy off the line as before.
The boost actually build gradually like a turbo making it feel like its not running out of legs up high anymore.
To me its a mod that must be done. The car will drive so much better and sound a heap better.
now ya might not wanna sell the setup hehehe
i did this mod like few yrs back much better cant belive it took you this long iblown heeh
Go 2 stroke power. Haha nice vid
How is it going? Any bites?
So you can now make a copy of the iblown movie with the blower infront??? Ehehehe cmon!! For preservation sake.
