Hi Guys,
Firstly you'll have to excuse my lack of forum etiquette, i will not lie, i am a newbie to forums!
My questions to those of you out there with the experience and know-how is...
I have a 1995 Manual VR Series II - (running - Performance Memcal, CAI, 2.5" High flow Cat, 2.5" Hi flow cat back Exhaust)
The current mods i have done have made a great improvement, the memcal being the best, it has smoothened the power band have improved the mid-top end pulling power hugely when coupled with the CAI. i am installing Extractors shortly, But...
I want to Supercharge the Engine, preferably using a Eaton type Charger that bolts to the top of the engine, over a stand alone charger (like CRS 2nd hand Toyota chargers,) Top mount Chargers place the throttle body before the charger eliminating the need for a BOV and the need to move the coil pack requiring longer spark leads, etc...
i have seen several advertised on e-bay, typically all 2nd hand VX Chargers, my question is.. Can the Ecotec designed top mount chargers fit (or be made to fit) a Pre-ecotec Engine? and if so how much work is it?
Note: i realise that i could keep looking until i source a VR charger, the few i have seen are missing parts or need repair, etc... If i can get a charger that is 3-7 years newer (VS-VY) i would definately prefer one of those.
Any help or experience would be greatly appreciated.
