Welcome aboard! When are you going to put the blower on? That sounds like a pretty serious setup - what kind of power are you shooting for?

I'm not familiar with the Harrop HTV supercharger, is it a roots or twin screw?

Roots, but it's a high helix hybrid. Each rotor has four lobes. 1.32L, whereas the stock one is a standard eaton roots blower, only 1L, 3 lobes. Gen 5 i think?

I already have the blower injectors etc, just waiting on some fittings for the return fuel system.

I'm keeping the standard 3" pulley on it, should be good for ~17/18lbs of boost on the current exhaust setup and about 290whp.

Ahhh, it sounds like a TVS blower. Those are the new style eaton's too (4 lobes, 160 degrees of twist). Very cool - your car should scream considering it weighs about, what, 2800lbs?

Yeah, about that, probably just north of 2900. I will probably pulley down once i get a new clutch and install the spare trans with LSD that i have.

Going to shoot for 325 at the wheels. Any more than that, and the instant torque of the blower would make it worthless in the twisties.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.
