Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Unless the internals have been beefed up. I'd be vary wary.

POST 3Original post

Would love to see how the SC pulley system looks like behind that cover.

This. the last guy i know who added 100+ hp to a stock block ended up with a very nice sized hole in the side of it. Granted, it was a Honda and I told him to sleeve the damn thing, but not alot of factory NA engines can take an additional 120hp of forced induction.

POST 6Original post

Before buying, I'd like to see it do a few dozen laps at a track in Alberta in January.

POST 7Original post

No. I am curious though, where is the alternator there? Charger sits where alternator is supposed to be. Also, even though this is MK1, imaging the procedure to replace the coolant tank. It seems like you would need to remove the SC completely.

FIFY...there are a lot 5.0 and 5.7 liter V8's out there that will take 10 pounds of boost and crank out an extra 150ish HP all day long.

POST 9Original post

If it would hold up, it'd be a heck of a lot of fun though!

Touche....I stand corrected!

POST 11Original post

I turbo charged a ford focus at 9psi for quite long time. ran several track days with some success. I didnt start blowing rods/pistons until i upped the boost to 15psi. Motors were $350 with 1 year warranty and I could swap em out in a weekend. I still wouldn't boost a NA porsche though.

3923 crazy fools out there, I'm firmly in the crack pipe camp.

POST 14Original post

Slapped a SC on my stock 95 mustang about 15 years ago. Took that stock motor from 225 to 385 hp. Beat the everloving **** out of that car. Held up fine.

POST 15Original post

Nissan's VQ35HR is a fun one. IIRC forged connecting rods from the factory & can handle a s/c that brings power on the 3.5L unit from 306 to ~400+. The serious problems start when you push it past 500 with a TT setup, from what I've read on the never-wrong internet. Exceptions to the rule.

POST 17Original post

He is an SC 996 MK1 for sale in Dallas if anyone is local and drives it. I'd be curious on the feedback. https://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/cto/5992418550.html

POST 18Original post

That is actually a very nice looking car.... regardless of the somewhat shady supercharger. I say shady because i don't believe our engines were meant to have forced induction. Way different than throwing a blower on a mustang
