supercharging

Post by Jay_Lude » Mon Jun 30, 2014 7:41 pm

Been looking at the jackson racing superchargers for the lude, just wondering what would the bhp increase be roughly and how difficult will it be to supercharge the 2litre lude

I was hoping to supercharge my 2litre 5th gen with the possibility of a little nitrous

Keep dreaming.
Read Neucleustyles ludes profile or mine.

Only for h22 or you will need serious cash to throw at customn fabrication on an f20.

N20 with charging is good because of its cooling properties. But it wont last forever and you will need a remap to come with on and off nitro.


This is all assuming you find a JRSC in the 1st place.

There are 4 people on here with a JRSC. Or in the UK only maybe.


Rough guide on power increase @ 6psi is 50bhp and 50-lbft.

So supercharging the F20 is out of the window without being rich basically?

Yes. The brackets and pulley system are designed for the h22. The f20 has it's powersteering and alt in different positions so nothing will line up. For the gain in power you might aswell get a h22 in the 1st place.

going from a 2.0 to a 2.2 vtec will be similar to getting a supercharger on the 2.0 but way cheaper

Turbo charging the f20 is definitely do-able though.

yea but its the costs involved for what you would get back it makes more sense to get a really nice 2.2, i wanted to turbo my lude but once i started adding up the parts costs it just would not be worth the gains or atleast i dont think it would be anyway
