Inferno Supercharger Build #mysatsuma

[Hxrry]

Epic figures! Bet that pulls like a frickin' train!! Going off the name, I was expecting a fast Mazda, but as a fellow inferno cup owner I'm glad I was wrong!

 

[Louis]

Awesome. Such a clean and tidy build, love it!

That sort of power with a SC it must absolutely fly 😂

 

[Rotoryboy]

Standard Ktec intercooler at the moment which is super tiny so I am planning on something bigger but depends on what will fit in such a cramped space

Got a graph of the power run, 300's loads ha

Yes the kite intercooler is very small and restrictive. I opted for a PWR intercooler, which has very minimal pressure drop and highly rated. Look it up: PWR Aero2 Intercooler, core size 500 x 196 x 68mm 2.5" outlets

Try asking these guys from Oz a shipping quote as a bit cheaper. Might be similar by the time it’s landed but worth asking.

Just adding this for the people interested.

I’m still running in the engine so will need remapping once it’s had some miles under its belt. It is still slightly over fuelling when cold but fine when warm. Spits flames well too 😳😆👍😷

 

[Rotoryboy]

Also fitted a new LED high level brake light in the cup spoiler as it’s been dead for a while. Looking at the board, I can see why 🤪😆

 

[Rotoryboy]

I wanted the front end to look slightly more aggressive so I dropped in some bonnet vents. A little for cooling bit mainly for looks

All that lovely engine work I had done and none of it is visible. Oh well. At least it has solve gold shines bits on

 

[gambit]

Very nice!, What are its road manners like?

 

[Rotoryboy]

It’s early days yet but so far it feels capably fast and fairly well mannered. I haven’t spent much time as yet only to the MOT station so far 😳😆😆

 

[Rotoryboy]

Just installed the fire extinguishers that won’t wreck all the hard work if something terrible happens

 

[haimsey]

They look like the JED brackets? Heard good things about those stick exstinguisers

 

[Rotoryboy]

So last week the Clio went for it’s MOT knowing that it has been dismantled and rebuilt twice (as the first New Genuine crank pulley keyway snapped and bent all of the Super tech valves) and been standing for 17 months. There was a few electrical issues, washer pump died, callipers sticking etc.

She came home with a little list of ‘to dos’ so I could finalise the project, if project cars are ever finalised.
All the electrics were silly little issues
Front brake callipers were totally refurbed
New washer pump installed
Track rod ends replaced with Engine Dynamics units

She went back for a retest today and came back with a Pass. Woohoo

Now we are ready to put some road miles on the new engine and have her remapped ready for track days at Castle Combe

 

[gambit]

Very nice!, what exact spark plugs are you using btw?

 

[Rotoryboy]

I am running the Original Megan’s 225’s. It runs well but I need a remap again as it is over fuelling on start up

 

[Rotoryboy]

Now in pride of place on a new concrete pad so I can look at it whilst having a beer in the sunshine

 

[gambit]

Looked like it was under a shade cloth for a min, but then realized it was the umbrella in the foreground. Looking good

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Good work, bet it's great fun. Who built the engine?

Anderson Race Engines 👌

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Nice - like the blue blocks, bit surprised they painted all the gasket faces but does look very tidy!

 

[Rotoryboy]

So another update so far:

We tried the 100mm pulley but it was just to big. This caused the belt to touch itself on the return, so we went back to the original 85mm and ditch the 70mm.

Fuelling was awful (60 miles on a full tank) so took it up to see Chris at EFI. He had a look at the map which was astonishingly bad. Had a good few hours sorting this out to get it running beautifully. It now runs at 230bhp and is very strong in all gears up to red line.

just need to get all the suspension all dialled in and corner weighted ready for the track.

the delivery with a rotrex is awesome, nice work

 

[Rotoryboy]

Front Aero went on today as I want an aggressive look and as much grip as possible

I'd be worried seeing that in my rear view mirror

It does look aggressive. Rear wing to go on shortly to balance it all out

 

[Bluebeard]

Drop me a pm when you’re next at combe. I usually do 10 days a year there and it would be good to meet some new people.

 

[Rotoryboy]

Added a bit of branding today. My god what an arse of a job to get right. Looking better now though 👌

 

[Rotoryboy]

Had a day at Coombe yesterday and she performed perfectly. Awesome day, superb handling and very pleased with her overall

 

[Rotoryboy]

Rear spoiler was fitted before we left site as we had a few dramas during the day.
