psylosyfer Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 There was a post awhile back from a guy who wanted to try to supercharge his sube. Any new news? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 depends what subie you're referring to. I can think of many EJ-series engines with some belt-driven boost.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psylosyfer Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 It was a couple months ago and it was in "older generation" so I'm thinking EA 81/82. But coulda been EJ22 not sure. Just curious if they got it to work and what they ended up using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joostvdw Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 matty b got I think a EJ20 in his wonderbrumby, maybe you're referring to him? look in the retrofitting forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I don't think his doing that anymore.. I was wanting to SC my EA81dc, but now I'm looking at two webers and very high comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I heard of rumors ...actually ..I know of someone who supercharged an EG33 SVX and know of I believe 2 others who may be in the processof doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubastreet Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 This thread's pretty good - a guy who decided to mildly SC his EJ and got a little boost hungry: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=605625&page=1&pp=25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenaissanceMan Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Isnt that a RAM engine? I was thinking about supercharging for a while, and still am I guess. I just decided to stay clear of trying it on one of the EA series motors, as every bad sube engine I have torn apart has had 1 piston explore other parts of the engine. I know it can be done, forged pistons etx, as RAM sells one, but I think it will be more worth it to tinker around with the SC and an EJ series. Especially since the SC I have is serpentine belt drive, not vbelt. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 yep, that's RAM engine. custom oil pan, intake, heads, valve covers...everything.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
