interesting set up for some cheap ponies , my brother seems to think the blower is off a 2litre engine, would be working hard at 5 lbs he thinks, he is a toyota nut : , but still might be worth a try for someone good find firefox7

i haven't seen anything superchargers sorta standard for the AU on the market that looks like that setup ! .. allthough the picture is there with it setup in an AU. I think if i was gonna get 1 personally i'de go for something a little more well known, that almost looks homemade ! , never know though , might be ok .

Yep, looksl like it's a homemade kit! The supercharger is off a late 80's Toyota Supra with the 1GGZE 2 litre six cylinder. While it would offer a mild initial boost at low revs, by mid-high revs it would make virtually no difference on a 4 litre engine.

Repost!
And it would be working very hard indeed. On a 3.8 V6 Commondore, these things are only worth around 20 or 30 kw (they're pretty much the same unit used by holden on their factory supercharged range). About the only thing it would be good for on a 4.0 I6 is provide more vacuum for power assisted brakes!?

Don't get anyone please!
Its a stupidly small supercharger for a falcon 4l six with mountings that mean you will have to relocate the radiator and thermo fans. Forget it. |

Waste of money. Worth maybe the same as a better sorted exhaust and cam.
