This seems like the answer to the dreams of all 1.7L owners: an electric turbo. Check out this clip:

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Easy Run E85.
EG33 is 10.0:1 and will handle about 7 psi in stock form with E85, all day long not an issue. On the 1.7 & E-85, and a bit of charge cooling, water or methane would help keep the unit from being a grenade and I would run it and see what happens, when you need more, just add it. Also if you wanted to run this, then just add a bypass around the turbo, when you don't want to add extra grunt from the electric snail. BTW @THELOGO technically a Turbo is a supercharger. Turbocharge just defines a subset of superchargers that are driven by exhaust gases, or other means beyond being mechanical. In street vernacular a Supercharger is limited to anything that has a mechanical drive, and Turbo Chargers are exhaust driven. That is an electric Supercharger, and is similar in design to a Paxton, or other centrifugal supercharger. In the true definition they are both part to the Supercharger family. Much like a beagle and a Great Dane are the same family, just developed into two completely different canines. |
