G-Lader Help?

Recommended Posts

i have a 90 g60 and the supercharger is in need of a rebuild, it is leaking oil into my intake and down through the intercooler up into the intake manifold :cry:, i know that bahn brenner rebuilds them for around $700 but being a college student im not floating in cash. i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to run the car without the supercharger, that way it would still be drivable until i have the money for the rebuild? any information would be much apretiated!

Yes, it is possible to run your car without the supercharger.

All you need it to get a shorter v-belt (don´t know it´s size right now), there are different belt sizes for A/C and non A/C cars.

You also need to remove the oil feed hose and block the oil coming from the engine.

Re-route your air filter directly to the intercooler.

You´ll be impressed by how much power you´ll loose without the supercharger!

Keep posting! :)

I took a look at the Canadians Corrado Forum.

 

I found out that the shorter belt to run the car without the supercharger is the 6PK1500.

 

I just wonder if this belt is for cars with or without A/C.

 

My car does not have A/C, so which one is the correct belt?
