Sypher50 0 Posted March 3, 2004 was wondering how easy it is to swap a g60 supercharger into a vr6...does it take a lot of modifictations or pretty simple? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted March 3, 2004 Do you mean change the whole engine, or bolt a g-lader onto a vr6 engine? If its the latter..... would be quite cool if possible. Swap the starter & alternator for a combo unit, and slot the g-lader in.... ;) C'mon Darren / G-Werks - sort it out! Hehe. You've got my VR6 - I'll let you experiment....

biggerbigben 0 Posted March 3, 2004 is there enough room?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sypher50 0 Posted March 3, 2004 well the room issue im not sure...i dont have a g ladder but was just thinking about maybe getting one on ebay for cheap and didnt know if someone had already done a swap before... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted March 3, 2004 Ive seen this come up somewhere before, apparently the g-lader doesnt flow enough for the 2.9litre engine. You would have to fit 2 of them and then you would have double the losses from the chargers making it very expensive for not a lot of gain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sypher50 0 Posted March 3, 2004 aight...thanks joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60bv 0 Posted March 4, 2004 no but an eaton m90 or m112 supercharger would flow enough, and there much more reliable units than say vortex and quite compact units, i see these go on ebay, emmmm... :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris VR6nos 0 Posted March 5, 2004 g60bv, The 'Vortech' units have the longest service intivals of any chargers and to date i've not heard of any going bang like the G-Lader ones like to do plus they can easily produce 23-40psi, read the literature thats available on the Vortech site or on numerous drag racing sites in America. My Vortech charger looks sexier & shinier than any black cast Eaton screw charger. Though I am biased :-D Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigtimeg60 0 Posted March 7, 2004 Ok then what can you do to make the vr6 quicker coz a friend already has the exhast and induction kit but he wants more as does any vr6 driver i suppose :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
