This is the sort of stuff i’m finding on the net that suggest the Eaton and likely other twin screw models could flow in reverse???. Although i would be looking into a completely different design in manifold like the modern up side down setups.

An upside down setups is what i originally wanted to do but then i got thinking… and researching… and i guess dreaming of crazy setup that would require a reverse flow sc but im not all that convinced either.

So i have a crazy question,
Can a supercharger be driven in reverse flow(blowing instead of sucking)?
Ultimately changing the intake to a discharge, for an example a twin screw with its rear entry intake through to a valley discharge reversed. (Im not talking about a reverse flow engine) more a manifold setup to suit a “reversed” su…[Read more] -

Drove this yesterday to the servo, Was great fun. The sound of the blower intake sings nicely at around 3500rpm cruising. And at WOT wines just right. Ill be taking the vk out next saturday with wide angle lense video. Hopefully the sound will record ok and ill post a edited version here.

Hey thanks, the m90 does make a difference. Mainly in torque and more power in the low and mid range. Top end im yet to find out as im taking it easy and slowly tuning it overtime. Clearance is around 10 mm. I think if i were to do it againg i would go with 2 mm less on the adapter plate and machine the rake on the intake manifold. I wanted to use…[Read more]

SouthRidge replied to the topic vb – vl A pillar cavity? in the forum Body & Paint 9 years, 3 months ago
Hey i found that upon closer inspection there is actually two layers (inner and outer). If viewed on the correct angle you can see another cutout offset a couple inch’s to the front. This second outer cavity runs down to the kick panel area on the inside. – Solved.
The inner layer seems to go no were to a dead end.
Hope this helps others.
