Supercharging a rotary

[mpk490p]

i have been offered a supercharger that came off a 13b injection (gen 2) any idea on how this would run with my Carb?!?

Thanks

I think Camden superchargers offer a carb that will work with the supercharger kit...

i take it wont work with the weber? can it be re jetted? if i have to go injection i may as well go for a s5 turbo

I really can\'t comment Mark - I don\'t know enough about it, is it a camden kit?

Have a look on ausrotary and rx7club, think its more of the blow threw setup but not entirely sure. Not really sure about it though.

depending on the manifolds you could stick your webber on it draw through style.   For ease an SU will also do the trick.

If you use a webber you will need a sealed one suitable for turbo applications like the old lotus esprit.  Or you can make a box for it but it get mor complicated and more difficult to tune.

Just stick a turbo II engine in it if you want power and arnt fussy about being different.

i have a turbo hat and was thinking of going turbo with the carb,
its a rock and a hard place though i want more power but if im going to swap engines and go for more extensive work i may as well go gen 3 (want to get one when we move in a year or 2) guess its the old chicken and egg!

Do you have the Egi engine in now though ?? Supposed to be hard to run boost on too.

all the vw boys that run webers and turbos have no problems after the carb has been modified. Look up anvw tuner website John Marr racing. I htink that is how you spell his last name? JMR anyhow. a bit of info on the  site about pressurising the weber carb anyhow.

lovelly looking set up.  Any idea what sort of 1/ mile or BHP its has.

Right now it\'s about 200 rwhp (250 @ the flywheel). Runs mid to high 14\'s in the 1/4.  With the nitrous it would have been 13\'s, just never got it done since the motor didn\'t go in until mid july. Next years plan involves twincharging and nitrous.
