supercharged?

[crackthatoff]

just been looking at turbo technics site, the supercharger for the k series looks like an interesting bit of kit, has anyone had any experiences if not why not ?
is it tempting fate too much for the hgf?
hmmmmmmmm

met a chap at castle coombe in july in a S1 with one, sounded fantastic and went well, but no quicker than a DVA 180 kit and had a few eletric probs. but Id get one for the noise alone

Might be worth dropping an email to Bogie - he had a TT conversion on his car some time back if you want an opinion from a former user ...

they did around 150 cars in their time ..well proven kit, most reliable in 190bhp form - transforms a std K series Elise - theres a TT yahoo group for about 4 years worth of reading

sorry - I lost it as its a few years now since I had mine - theres tons on here and SELOC if you do a search though...many of us put decent miles on them - mine was 230 spec and did about 35K miles post conversion before I went SC Honda - sold the TT engine complete for £3.5K and as far as I know its still going strong in another car now

they make good road conversions, but never really stood up to persistant hard track use, which I think was down to oil cooling - so I had an extra one fitted in addition to the one in the kit for the SC
