SC14 questions

Postby FST4RD » Sun Jul 19, 2015 11:00 am

Getting my Mitsubishi Starion sorted. Been looking at different engine options. Probably going to stick with the 8v 4G63. However I've been thinking about ditching the turbo in favour of a SC14 supercharger.
Motor will be almost factory, not aiming for mass hp, just reliability... Going to be focussing on handling and brakes.
Is this a viable option? I do like the instant boost/power delivery of the 4agze.

I've seen SC14 on various 4ages, and an SR20. Goes hard. Of course all the fabrication is custom, and setting up the belts correctly is a pain of trial-and-error.
Sounds like a cool idea, it will be unique and fun.
But for the time and money involved, could you just upgrade the turbo? Assuming you've got a TC type turbo, something modern and water-cooled could make a big difference to the responsiveness and power curve.
