    If we want both AC and PS to remain (and I like both), I don't see how it could be done without going full serpentine belt conversion. Looks like it could be a pain to do that to the AC compressor, hence my desire to do a belt delete.

      I'm very much in on this. I was going to design my own setup to use an M90, but group sourcing something would be much simpler.

      I'm all for the no a/c approach, but I want to keep power steering. (I don't have PS at the moment though, so if I didn't have either, I wouldn't be overly butthurt.

        I'm thinking keep the AC and ditch the power steering. I haven't had power steering for over 2 years and wouldn't go back to it. AC is necessary for anyone living in a hot climate

            It's been 100F+ here for a few days, I love my AC.

            Back on topic (sort of?), it'd be cool to have MS units with flexfuel capability for this. I know I'd love to tune mine on corn and have cheap race gas.

                  I could possibly help with machining a few brackets. I run a Mitsubishi 3015lvplus at work.

                      +1 for keep AC and delete PS if necessary

                      What internal motor mods are required to run SC?
                      What is the estimated power gain and hard cost [no labor]?

                        Can I get a kit for my S50? Would love an Eaton on my S50. I can get Eaton superchargers brand new for dirt cheap, my friend is an aerospace engineer at Eaton. :)

                          So you can get us a group buy of gen4 (gen5???) M60/M90/M112s for cheap?

                              Progress? I'd be very interested, as the only available kits seem to be in europe. It'd be easier and probably cheaper to source an m54..

                                The race to the m90 is on ;-)


                                I think if you could find good m62 or m90 cores~ have them rebuilt/certified for your kit, and provide the proper brackets to hold the thing on you would be good to go at selling 5-10 kits easily. Pulley quotes are high though~ around $200 bucks. There is enough room infront of the stock acc pullies to add a 6 rib to drive the sc.

                                You could go the tcd route and use a fmu and chip to handle timing~ a supercharger is a bit more linear than a turbo so the stock computer shouldn't freak as much if you can handle leaving the afm in there.

                                custom 6-rib pulley
                                custom piping flanges for m90/m62 connection
                                custom brackets to hold it on
                                custom intercooler/piping
                                chip w/rrfpr & 24lb injectors OR megasquirts

                                Boom! Done.
