Nice 1... is she running yet?

That big thing in the front/drivers side of the engine bay with the pulley is non other than a Supercharger.

225/60/15's with Navara offset on the fronts and landcruiser rear offsets.
6 studs each.

Toyota 1gg blower, Very custom brackets, all LPG of course.

We have 15km of test run under the belts.
It was leaking boost like a seive (deliberately) and IT HAULS!
LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN!

new belt is coming today to replace version one.
minor modification last night fixed a belt alignment problem.

4 days, three nights,
Tired, sore and grinning like a fool.

Will is a legend and gets huge credit for his hard work, lateral thinking and skill.
Thanks heaps for your work.
Full write up is in the works, after further testing of course.

gonna have to come visit again matt... sounds like shes coming along nicely

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 12:20 pm**

I will be down for a tune very soon.
Do you know anyone except FKN Ken Vance Motors who would have an air/fuel meter that can test under load?

One of those things that goes in the loud pipe and mounts on the dash allowing you to drive around monitoring mixture?????

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 1:31 pm**

ill have a talk to pete tonight

his boss is meant to be very good with the tuning, people seem to come from all over to get him to look at things

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:35 pm**

Hero, thanks.

I am letting it blow off gently all the time at the moment.

I am very scared of backfire until I get this mixture right.

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:38 pm**

hey matt.
as is be scared. gotta try these things.

otherwise ull never know.

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:41 pm**

Oh I will know Adam. there will be a big blue and yellow flame coming out from under my bonnet, followed closely by bits of plastic pod and blower blades.
Big risk.

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:43 pm**

but atleast itll look good??

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:55 pm**

just make like the drag car guys....

if she pops off rebuild it stronger next time 8O

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 10:50 pm**

Engine bay looks good in the daylight

Hows the radiator coming along? did we win the extra clearence?

I have a jaycar mixture meter, will work with gas after a minor mod, prob not good enough for a proper tune but should give a rough indication of whats happening.

I ll rustle up those bits as well, you can come up and grab them so i can have a drive

Posted: **Wed Apr 12, 2006 11:40 pm**

pete said that brendan (his boss) could do it

is away till tuesday now so will find out after then if he wants to tho

gotta say hes not the cheapest person around tho

oh and many years ago he was manager or something high enough up at ken vance and would know a thing or 2 about gas
