182 Manifold and de-cat sourced. Just need to deliver engine along with Cambelt kit and dephaser pulley

Summit like that. Its no SR20DET Though !

KW are built by Koni to KW specification. They are a great piecce of kit

no progress lol. Engine to be dropped off next couple of weeks for cambelt change

I can get a genuine Renault one from dealership with 1 yr warranty for £130 :)

Will have alook about, originally spoke to Kam racing about a year ago and they were waiting for stock and never called back. was going to get them directly from AST and he gave me price then never replied !

thanks quack quack :)

Yeah i'm just looking at whats required and rough costs for the parts. Obviously some fabrication work is required etc. Supercharger will be the biggest cost i reckon. Currently got engine out of the car to do cambelt etc but was just nosing at someones project :)

To the people who have carried out Supercharger fitments. did you forge the motor ? If not what sort of figure are the stadard internals happy with ? Whats required ? and rough costs on a budget ? any info and guides would be great mike

How much and condition ? any pics ?

How much work is involved fitting a supercharger on the 172 ? what parts are needed ?
