    Scott,
    Is the system adoptable to EFI?

    yes! it is adaptable with any EFI. i went into this project with upgrading in mind. in the stock CIS form the boost is low 9~10psi but if one is willing to upgrade to a programable EFI then you can swap pulleys and go for higher boost and better effeciancy.

    nick is going to be carring the supercharger and has stand alone EFI for those who want to go that route. along with other goodies. plans are also under way to boost a modified displacement motor as well. more news and goodies at the show!

    all in all it's been a fun project and at times i've almost lost it! the mindset was to keep it simple and try not to effect many changes to the over all basic engine layout.

    Wow! It's amazing to see it all (almost) done.

    I have to tell you though.. I knew that little paper thing you started with wouldn't work! :p

    OOOOOOOOO! Very, very nice. Adjustable pullies even. It'll be interesting to see what numbers it puts down on the dyno. Sweet job!

    Wow, that's very very nice :) What's the cost on hardware so far? Are the injectors new as well & did you customed those fuel/oil lines? I can't get metric sizes here. Keep us updated!

    my cost so far is around 2.5k not including the brackets and crank pulley as i haven't added up the shop time yet. we spent 22hrs in the last 3 days milling parts, you end up junking a few before you get it right.

    the injectors are new replacement bosch ones, my old steel ones have seen better days. i'll have those re-done at some point. the fuel hose i got from global metrics for $25 for all the polymide tubing and sizes i need. extra even, cheapest cost so far ;)

    the coolant and other hoses are new also, found all the metric hose at a local distributor for german cars. they are very difficult to find. i posted a thread about a few weeks ago, they might ship internationally.
