Cams, ITB's and a supercharger....excessive, cool, or pointless?

[Chip-mk1]

I suupose aslong as you can get a sensor where the calibration is the same as the OEM one, you could fit a bolt in one?

Given that I would be using aftermarket for any project like this, you can calibrate whatever sensor you want (within reason)

 

[Dan@SJM]

True, I was more on about OEM usage.

 

[smitchell1]

Speak to Jamsport they have run turbochargers with ITBs on one of their employees Fiesta ST's so id assume the principal is the same.

 

[DannyR]

Hundreds of M3 Supercharger conversions too that use OEM ITBs.

 

[marinemackay2003]

personally i would just sell the itbs and get a jenvey turbo plenum

as its designed for application and would probably be less work

probably be up a couple of notes too by selling itbs

 

[Rhys Beal]

It will work I'm sure. Whether a 2 speed rotrex will work on it is another question

Sell the car and buy a megane job done!

K-Tec used to glue them in.

Never seen it done like that. Bracket added to hold the sensor in, or add a hose tail barb and remote locate the sensor is how I've always seen it

They suck ****. Tested them for antanov, you just get on peak power and it changes up so you lose an instant 30bhp. Crap

 

[Rhys Beal]

I was sceptical about it because of the massive drop in torque mid range too. With that in mind I will remove it and run it standard single speed

Steve's 172 turbo was where I saw it.

Riddle? that was a BBPT conversion originally

 

[Dan@SJM]

Ah. My mistake.

BBPT used to glue them in then.
