Hi I was browsing your Fun in the Sun gallery and came across this picture. It seems to be some sort of turbo? I have never seen this before, can you elaborate? Is there a thread you can direct me to for more information? Thanks in advance

 

That was a driver from our little get together...

It's a hotside supercharger kit and the user's name is wlaurent that has that kit installed.

More actually to be non-intercooled "hotside" Eaton MP62 supercharger.

 

wierd lookin thing. how much power does he make on it? how does it work?

 

This is the first BETA kit for a company called Stage One Tuning ( http://www.stageonetuning.com ). They have been doing roots type SC's for the Miata crowd for about 6 or 7 years

Early to mid 2006 the "then" owner fell on some hard times and in October the company was purchased by Barker Products. Barker Products manufactures pumping and hydraulic systems and had manufactured some of the components for the original company - which was known as BRP Performance. Barker is currently in the process of reviving the SC business - but they have a hard road ahead of them.

The S2000 kit will probably go for sale in about 4-6 weeks. I, along with another east coast car, are the initial test bed for the kit. My install was actually finished at 1AM the same day that the picture was taken. I did not have much time to tune the kit prior to the meet - but wanted to get it out there. I worked on street tuning the kit a bit more today and am quite pleased with everything so far.

I will be doing an update in the FI forum later this week that will include dyno results, etc. I will then follow-up with results on the intercooler version. For now this is all I can share:

The kit is a roots type, positive displacement MP62 supercharger. Boost on the non-Intercooled kit is 6 PSI (from 3500 to 9000). I expect the HP on this kit to be somewhere in the 280 RWHP range.

The fit and finish of the kit (even being a BETA kit) is quite nice. The look is almost OEM (personal opinion) and the install is pretty straight forward.

The IC kit will be about 7 PSI. I suspect that will put the peak RWHP to about 320.

I should have it dyno's sometime this week - once I get a little more street tuning undrer my belt.

I will post a link in this thread to the one I put in the FI forum later this week.

 

Added note - CARB certification will be dependent on interest. Certification of a FI kit costs $10-20K - register in the forums at the posted link and voice your interest, of course you may want to wait until I get some dyno info posted
