funkyfive 0 Posted April 13, 2012 Hi all, Mileage is around 2000 miles, used only between Oct 2011 - Jan 2012. I decided to go 1.8T. Vortech V3 Supercharger (Latest Kit for a VR6) Stage 2 Pulley (8 PSI) Custom Air Intake Pipework including MAF relocation K&N relocated to the passenger side arch VF Race Valve Oil Breather Delete on the Air Intake side of the Charger Crankhouse Breather to Oil Catch Can Warranty included from VF Oil change has been completed so nothing for the next 7500 miles of boosted driving. Remaining oil will be supplied Latest VF Red Top Injectors Idler bracket for both non-air con and air con Uprated cooler spark plugs All remaining parts from the VF kit will be included Also an extremely hard to get OEM “Supercharger” badge to finish the kit off!! OBD2 Socketed ECU included; United Motorsport Generic Chip – Easy plug and go option Stealth Racing Custom Map – Would suggest a tweaking mapping session with Vince. Its cheaper than the initial map. I’ve already paid for this. £2300 Collected and I am open to offers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AB 0 Posted April 13, 2012 i think these new kits are self lubricating so no need for a return to the sump. Also reading the ad the long pipe with blue ends is what relocates the air filter to the passenger side. lovely bit of kit!!! GLWS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Portent 0 Posted April 13, 2012 haha, well if you buy it Adrian i would help fit it for you Really appreciate that but I think me buying it is a bit of a pipe dream. Unlikely to happen. I'm OBD1 anyway and I guess the ECU will cost a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 13, 2012 Looks to be a much better charger than the awful V9. Would suit an R32 actually, hmmmm...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkyfive 0 Posted April 13, 2012 Guys looks like supercharger porn time. Hummmmm Supercharged R32 in a Corrado on standalone management sounds fun fun fun Kev. I thought it best to say guys, this is 100% self lubricating and the oil has been changed so this does not need doing for another 7500 miles and to be fair the lube is cheap. Its worth noting that a 10 psi pulley is to be available soon from http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/ This is the URL to details on the V3 charger itself http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/product.php?p=147 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 13, 2012 i have looked at this add about 5 times today, i can feel a pm from me soon?? Proper bolt on mate. No fannying around with oil supplies and bashing sharp prongs into sumps. Stop stock piling packs of 60 bog rolls and buy this instead :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

captainredeye 0 Posted April 16, 2012 Really appreciate that but I think me buying it is a bit of a pipe dream. Unlikely to happen. I'm OBD1 anyway and I guess the ECU will cost a bit. Out of curiosity if this was installed on an obd1 engine would you need a custom ecu or would it be a case of having your existing ecu chipped or mapped?

funkyfive 0 Posted April 16, 2012 If you was to you use this kit on an OBD1 VR you would need to get this chipped or custom mapped, the problem with generic chips are you dont get the full potential so I would suggest Vince @ Stealth for a custom map.

bristolbaron 10 Posted April 16, 2012 whats the deal with an intercooler, do you not need to run one with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkyfive 0 Posted April 16, 2012 No there is no need to run an intercooler. In a supercharged setup charge cooling is better from my understanding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkyfive 0 Posted April 17, 2012 Oh again charge cooling is not required with this setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkyfive 0 Posted April 18, 2012 After some new wheels or Wavetac LSD for a o2j or o2a with ARP bolts. Time for deal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
